NOTES

TODO : as soon as I figure out how to retrieve character max speed, I will activate progressive running only when you have a boosted speed, and not if you have just the basic speed factor of 0.15.

NOTE : if you uninstall the mod, you may keep a slow speed at the next map launch.
to retrieve your usual speed, type this console command :

Code: Select all

/c game.player.character_running_speed_modifier = 0

Or better : disable the acceleration BEFORE uninstalling the mod with :

Code: Select all

/c remote.call( "progrun", "off" )

Oh sweet! so happy to see thisHow long does it take to reach max speeds?

while 1/2 second you stay at half speed, then in 1/2 second, you accelerate to full speed.
but you can configurate it in config.lua .

I made it quite quick, because for me, it's just a way to position yourself precisely.

Yes I was needing it so much for a long time now, so when I saw that 0.13 API offers this possibility, I did it !

1.0.6 - rework of the whole mod :
- tests if exoskeleton or other modifiers are present, so now computes the correct normal walking speed.
- starts walking even slower than normal speed (customisable in config.lua)
- acceleration increases with max speed (also customisable in config.lua)
- before uninstall, to recover normal speed, use
/c remote.call( "progrun", "off" )
- to re-enable the mod, use
/c remote.call( "progrun", "on" )

I love this! I can actually move in my oil fields. Thanks.

Any way to toggle it on/off? Sometimes, I need to run, NOW.

If there is no exoskeleton and no modifiers, does it still start slower than normal? The one problem I had with this mod when I tried it was the early game it was slowing me down even though I'm already as slow as the game gets.

Please update.
The last version start walking at normal walking speed, not depending on the stuff you wear.

Cheers, will do.

Doesn't play nice with Turtle Speed (not really surprising): if Turtle is on, it still speeds up. Would be nice if... well, if you could add this functionality? Turtle Speed mod, with toggle on F1 (default), toggles.

I'm on Power Armor MK3 (mod) with sixteen 'skels, in case you're wondering.

Hi Jürgen,

I added a F1 hotkey to toggle acceleration on/off, so that you can stay at basic normal speed if you want.

Please update, try and tell me if it's ok for you.

Yesterday all was fine, got the F1 hotkey message, very nice by the way! Today, got changes = nil on line 62.

[binbinhfr]

sorry, stupid error, please update, should be working now.

Removing this mod from an existing save seems to ruin player movement...?

We had it, it was causing issues in multiplayer with the latency hiding feature, so we removed it, and now we run at normal speed with 5 legs, and like 0.2 speed with them removed... How do we remove this mod?

How do we remove this mod?

please read the notes at the top of this post... all is explained
