Night to day/day to night

[GI-YO]

I've searched for this but found nothing, so my question is it possible to speed up time realy realy fast (not x4) so that say once you've captured the village in the day you can wait until dark for the enemy counter attack. I'm sure i've seen it done in other games not that helps. I hope you can understand this. Thanks.

Here's a really simple way to do it. Create a script. Just copy any .sqs file and delete whats in it. Then put this in it.

x = the number of hours you want to skip.



titlecut ["","BLACK out",3]
~1
skiptime x
~1
titlecut ["","BLACK IN",3]
exit

Call the file summit like skiptime.

Then put a trigger and in the activation line put,

 [] exec "skiptime.sqs"

Done.
Tell me how you get on with it as I just made it up.

I think you might want
~3  (or more)

In the above example as the Black OUT and Black IN are each phased over 3 seconds.

It all depends if you want to watch time progress in which case look at the link in the previous post - or if you just want to jump ahead in which case this should do it.

you can better do:

titlecut ["","black in",3]
~3
skiptime x
~3
titlecut ["","black in",3]

if you do ~1 you will still see the time change  
because the 3 behind "black out" means it will last 3 secs to make the whole screen dark
