B42 support?
Chief Burbs Dec 21, 2024 @ 2:48pm 
Can we please get this updated? The new reading settings take ages to get through a skill book.
MarlyZ89 Dec 21, 2024 @ 5:21am 
Will this mod be updated for Build 42? If not is there any way that someone else can possibly update the code?

How do you stop reading?
Big Thanos Jun 15, 2024 @ 9:16pm 
Mod works with no issues. Not sure why people are having such problems. They are probably not adding it to the server mod menu.
T1r4mi5u Jun 11, 2024 @ 6:13am 
doesnt work.
Sampo May 25, 2024 @ 5:26pm 
For me this ONLY works on a fresh install. For those of you having issues

Does the boost apply when sitting in a car seat?
Bloofy May 5, 2024 @ 5:49am 
ebalsya, you can literally manually change how fast books are read in multiplayer, you don't need a mod for it
Winter Apr 26, 2024 @ 2:36pm 
Moment i saw the smiley cat reading book i had to get the moment and only found out later what it was. Cool mod definitely recommend it
ebalsya Apr 7, 2024 @ 9:14am

doesnt work.
ocon Mar 16, 2024 @ 2:38pm 
cheers cat

Probably some sort of mod conflict but i've found if you encounter a bug where you can't read the regular book mod disabling this mod seems to work. I'll post logs if anyone cares enough to further bug test it i guess
Jellyrogers Feb 28, 2024 @ 11:13pm 
mod is very helpful:steamhappy:
GlockMat Feb 8, 2024 @ 5:40am 
Dos this mod affect the duration of the skill books, I remember reading that as long as you did not level past the book, the bonus should keep applied, but my character lost the XP bonuses after a day or so
T_GabiUel Feb 3, 2024 @ 10:43am 
I can confirm this mod still works.
sealbor Dec 26, 2023 @ 11:23pm 
The hamster tells the truth, the mod neithers work for me
Hud50nny Dec 26, 2023 @ 10:56am 
Help it doesn't work in single player
EternalAutumn Nov 30, 2023 @ 5:37pm 
pls leave a note in description that the mod doesnt work with "cdda reading". It blocks gaining exp directly
Outrager Nov 15, 2023 @ 4:16am 
For me it's working fine.
Sitting while reading a book with 220 sites (vol1) is done within seconds (local game, with fast-forward).

I deactivated all other "fast reading mods" and had only this one active.
Hadalnaut Nov 11, 2023 @ 8:38pm 
Walking while reading works fine, but reading skill book while sitting not yielding faster time. jut clocked it at 2 minutes 13 seconds while sitting, Mechanics Vol 1. im not complaining tho, still hella faster than normal.
Gusmao Nov 8, 2023 @ 12:18am 
This mod dont show in my mod list
La__fonzi Oct 11, 2023 @ 7:55pm 
this mod mixed with the pop mod excramentom stops you from being able to read skill books unless your pooping
DerNackteGolferX Oct 8, 2023 @ 5:54am 
does this works with true actions? like sitting on chairs and stuff?
雨雪毁了我的珍珠梦 Sep 29, 2023 @ 8:37am

1:The mod work perfectly fine in singleplayer.
2: work in multiplayer
3: you can install it in a mid game.
4: i want to rememberr you this: Skill books (sitting, YOU NEES TO SIT) = 1 minute 20 seconds (55 seconds with fast reader trait, YOU NEED THE FAST READER TRAIT).
5: i recommend you to create a new world just because yes xd

Walking while reading doesn't work with multiplayer when using the 'CDDA reading' mod. However, you still receive the bonus experience while sitting.
Luko May 28, 2023 @ 12:07am 
Doe it work with CDDA reading
dagon-89 May 18, 2023 @ 4:28am 
Есть зависимость от освещения?
Title Fight Enjoyer May 2, 2023 @ 12:25am 
safe to uninstall mid game?
CandyStrawZ Apr 23, 2023 @ 2:18am 
You don't even have to restart the server.

type in /reloadoptions

But this mod doesn't just change the reading speed. It offers more features :o!

But yes if all you wanted to do was change the speed. DOWNTOWN has a lovely solution. I diddn't know this

You don't need a mod to change reading speed. You can do it in the console in-game as long as you are the server owner. Here are the steps:

1) press enter while in your server
2) type: /changeoption MinutesPerPage "0.5"
3) exit the server
4) launch the server again

NOTE: the value for MinutesPerPage can be anything between 0.01 and 1. Default is 1, so if you want to read twice as fast, put 0.5. Just keep in mind you'll have to re-launch the server every time you change it before testing it. BTW, there's tons of admin commands like this that can help you customize your in-game experience. Here's a webpage that has a list of all of them: https://pingperfect.com/index.php/knowledgebase/277/Project-Zomboid--Admin-commands.html
Kiddley Feb 21, 2023 @ 10:27am 
I was wondering if you could make a version of this mod that has a Sandbox config to change the reading speed. The slower version is too slow in my eyes but the fast version is too fast haha. At the very least, would you be cool with me making the mod and uploading it to the workshop?
Biem Tatari Feb 15, 2023 @ 2:58am 
very nice
