Description
Speeds up the game by removing pointless pauses and other time-wasters.
All changes are purely cosmetic.

UPDATED TO SUPPORT WAR OF THE CHOSEN!
For a version that doesn't require War of the Chosen, see here

Combat changes:
  • Removed 1-2 second pause after:
    • Shooting, throwing grenades, abilities, etc.
    • Getting a kill
    • Going into cover
    • Reanimating corpses and unburrowing chryssalids
    • Enemies are revealed
  • Removed enemies randomly pointing for no reason
  • Removed some unskippable Bradford voiceovers:
    • 1, 3, and 6 turns remaining warnings
    • Civilians dying warning
  • Removed 33% slowdown of enemies not being attacked during overwatch slowmo (enemies being attacked are unaffected)

Non-combat changes:
  • Increased the speed of the Avenger on the global map
  • Reduced the fade-in time of the horrendously slow color picker

Other similar mods:

Classes Overridden (why do I care?):
  • (non-essential) UIColorChip.uc
  • (non-essential) X2Action_EndCinescriptCamera.uc
  • (non-essential) X2Action_EnterCover.uc

Thanks to tracktwo for figuring out how to shut Bradford up!
Thanks to MINERAL-115, Ttack, and Joshimodo for contributing logos!

@BlueRaja I am so sorry I have confused your mod with skipeverything! My bad! Yours isnt aggressive enough for my liking but it doesnt break anything so that is good :)

@Exosus: Does the "Less Overwatch Lock Ups" mod help with that?

I have a hate-love relationship with this mod.. It caused so many freezes or semi-freezes (at least from my testing) but when I stopped using it I immediately started missing it tremendously.

Quite often the last soldier you move just kinda stands there and cant be commanded without reselecting.

Thanks!

@sherpa: No, the amount of time that passes is still the same. As mentioned in the description, all changes are purely cosmetic.

Hi all, new player question:

"Increased the speed of the Avenger on the global map"

Is this a game balance change? Presumably, time advancing whilst travelling on the ship is related to balance?

I have launched the game with the mod launcher, the mod is activated but I don't see any differences

I'm playing with LWOTC, and this doesn't seem to work.

@gyozo This mod already does that. If you look at the description for the other mod, they took the code from this mod, so they both do exactly the same thing.

Is there a way to make this compatible with [WOTC] Instant Color Menus ?
