Longer day length
Demian:
Currently the maximum day length is 300 seconds which is 5 minutes. You can make the day longer through Mission Editor but I would much rather use the Environment Editor and .atmosphere files. Is there any reason why the day length is clamped to such a low value? I would much prefer a 7200 second (2h) day.
Alternatively is there a way to go around this limit by changing the day length value through the Mission Editor by using a script that works with the .atmosphere files?
Christopher P.:
Yeah I've been wanting this to make one minute in real life, one second in game based on day length.
MrLoL²:
Badspot said on his server, and on topic that we could change length to 24 hours in seconds.
Apparently, that feature got removed.
Ben Grapevine:
Actually you can do a workaround (at least I can):
I set the day cycle to "7000" and then it glitches to 700 seconds
I set the day cycle to "4200" and then it glitches to 420 seconds
Megaguy2:
If you input 10000000 or some huge number it actually sets it so it's on 24 hours, I think.
Ben grapevine is correct. For some dumb reason it deletes a digit so if you set it to 420 it actually ends up just being 42. but if you sent it to 4200 it is 420.
