grumbold99 Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Is there some way to fast forward until morning / noon / evening? I don't really want to explore these lovely maps in pitch darkness unless there's a good reason to do so, but I seem to be stuck in a cycle of waking up from a rest or walking out of a dungeon to find it's nighttime. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WDeranged Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 I don't think there is but it'd be a great feature to patch in. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sim-h Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 This should surely be easy to add? Like resting but without the....rest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starwars Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 (edited) It'd be very nice to have! EDIT: Of course, it may be problematic in regards to the Stronghold.

frabron Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 I support this request. It would be cool to have an option to wait until morning light before exploring those really nice looking wilderness areas 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. There's a console command: AdvanceTimeByHour int http://rien-ici.com/iemod/console I don't know if it requires IE mod or not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And no "boohoo I needed to use up my resting supplies I wouldn't use otherwise anyway" doesn't count. ^ I agree that that is such a stupid idiotic pathetic garbage hateful retarded scumbag evil satanic nazi like term ever created.

Frond Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 I would like to choose resting hours as well. I greatly prefer exploring in the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenicetus Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 I'd like to see this feature too. I wouldn't use it very often, because I think it adds to immersion when I walk out of a dungeon and time has passed. The randomness can be interesting; I've never liked games that force day/night cycles so you're always exploring graveyards at night, etc. But I would use it to set daytime for areas like Copperlane when dealing with outdoor merchants. It doesn't feel right to have everyone standing around hawking their wares in the middle of the night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badmojo Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Yea, especially when you rest and suddenly its night, should just rest till morning or give you an option on when to wake up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marceror Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 I think it was Troika's Temple of Elemental Evil that had an advance time option. You could simply specify how many hours you wanted to let pass. It wasn't resting and so no healing or spell resources would be regained. It was a handy option that would probably be easy to implemement.

LadyCrimson Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Outside of cheat/console commands and camping/resting at an Inn more than once, there doesn't appear to be. The only method would be to travel from a map to another and back again to waste time. Pick one that's 4-8 hours travel time, for example. “Things are as they are.

Yes, but unless all your parties have 0 Athletics, not enough to really matter a whole lot if you're just trying to move the clock forward 4-6 hours ... I have 3 Athletics and I seem to be able to go multiple days without Fatigue setting in. When I camp/rest, it's not because of Fatigue issues. “Things are as they are.

Katarack21 Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 For Act 2, you can go to Stormwall Gorge and click on the little plate in the ground on the lower left part of the overmap next to the entrance to the dungeon. This item has a scripted event interface; one of the options is "wait and see", which will instantly cause 8 hours to pass. You can do this as much as you want until Act 2 passes and Stormwall Gorge opens all the way; at that point the item is no longer clickable.
