Question on mod creation

[PlasticTou]

I'm trying to create a mod to acceleate game running. 

with the following script, but it seem to be unable to load, my guess is that "TheSim ... " won't be able to run until other things are loaded, any ideas?

 

local accelerate_factor = 1.5

 

print(TheSim:GetTimeScale())

print(TheSim:GetTimeScale() ~= accelerate_factor)

if TheSim:GetTimeScale() ~= accelerate_factor then

    TheSim:SetTimeScale(accelerate_factor)

end

Also, I noticed when exeucting settimescale(x), in cave and returning to surface, the character will be located at spawning point (the door)

Your code looks correct. You can see my mod Speed Me Up, which works in a world without caves. To acclerate a world with caves, networking is required.

Was able to check the mod, and I think it does work in the cave... at least in solo server. 

I think my issue was with "TheSim" is not initialized (can't confirm as I don't know how to debug this with this... ), my script has it as a single call, but you used button for function call.

also in reference to 

is there a way to run this in both server and local? (creating 2 mods, 1 server 1 local)?

You need to learn RPC to send command to server. Local speed is independent from server speed, if they mismatch you'll see acclerated animation. If you enable cave, you even need to sync the speed across shards, if necessary.
