Mod to slow everything down

Post by Cruzz999 »

Hi! I'm wondering if it would be possible to make a mod which slows just about everything in factorio down by a factor of 2.75.

This means run speed, all vehicle speeds, inserter speeds, belt speeds, research and crafting speed, all enemies, etc etc etc.
Just everything.

Everything that's sped up (or slowed down) when using the console command /c game.speed=2.75.

The reason I would want this is obviously to get them frames. I've never seen UPS change from 60. I've never made a megafactory either, so that's probably why I've never had any issues whatsoever. However, once I pop in the aforementioned command, the UPS and FPS are instead pinned at 165, which conveniently happens to be the same as my monitors refreshrate. It is glorious. Smooth. Crisp.

But everything is silly fast and zoomy, obviously. I found a mod which fixes some things, A2x1 config bits, but it doesn't handle all the things.

Would this be possible? I'm no modder or programmer, but I've seen mods with faster belts, faster spidertrons, faster everything, so it seems to me that the opposite should be reasonable?
