Speeding up time on the map

[Igor]

Is it possible to speed up the time on the main map so that you can move around faster? You could do it in both Sea Dogs and POTC, but i can't seem to do it with AOP. I figured out that you can use the "R" key during 3rd person sailing mode to speed up time, but the R key does nothing on the main map. Is there another key to speed it up on the main map? is it even possible to speed it up on the main map? Also, is there a trade screen like in POTC that lists all the import and export goods of the colonies? I know that you can tell if a good is being exported or imported by its colour in the trade menu, but you have to be in the store on the colony to see that. Can't you see if a colony is exporting or importing something without actually docking at the colony?

in the worldmap (pressing "m") you can see by right- clicking on the colony icon, of each colony, which goods are imported/exported.

What about speeding up time like you could do in POTC?

Well, that was the build, wasn't it?

Why would you want to speed up time on the overall map? It's pretty fast there already?

The speed on the overall map is very, very, very slow. There must be a way to make the "r" button (speed up on the battle map) to also work on the overall map. I tried to modify the "Age of Pirates - Caribbean Tales\Program\controls\init_pc.txt" file but no luck. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />
I´ll keep trying, but would appreciate little help <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whippa.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="whippa.gif" />

I think this shows how great the build MOD is!, If people think its MODs are part of the original KUDOS!

Did anyone successded in adding the "r" key so thet it can speed up the time on the overall map.
Is it even possible?
I gave it my best, but <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" /> no luck

You'd be glad to have it go at a slower pace when you start getting pirates following you everywhere. lol

I once had the pleasure of landing straight into a spanish punitive squadron with a MoW sending 35 cannon balls onto me Lugger cuz I recieved a phone call..

todays impatient and action craving youth, what can i tell ye, except that i stand out. im a bit oldfashioned, like classic and orchestral music. im really into the great age of sail, and i really find the pace just perfect and relaxing. the music does its job real good soothing the nerves after a tough battle <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />

Yes. Relaxing. But imagine how much relaxation the music would provide at . . . x 3 speed! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

As for me, I have a hard enough time trying to avoid hostile vessels and storms at the speed you travel now, so this would probably not work for me.

Hmm...

You can either increase the time speed setting here

<!--c1--><div class='codetop'>CODE</div><div class='codemain'><!--ec1-->
    worldMap.date.hourPerSec = 2.0;
<!--c2--></div><!--ec2-->

or adjust the travel speed here

<!--c1--><div class='codetop'>CODE</div><div class='codemain'><!--ec1-->
    worldMap.shipSpeedOppositeWind = 0.6;
    worldMap.shipSpeedOverWind = 1.2;
<!--c2--></div><!--ec2-->
