Time-acceleration key?
I don't seem to be able to find any reference to a time-acceleration mode/key in the Oolite keyboard reference pdf... Querying Google indicated that there is one - P+arrow-keys, but I tried that to no avail...
Dor 'call me Grocer' Reval (a Xexedian Laver) was always considered a little backward.

Right / left arrow keys while in pause. But you need the Test Release version of the game, this feature is disabled in the standard deployment one.

Ah righty, thanks - good to know.... I think I am using 1.91 with a 'dev' suffix, not the 'test'.

Oh, that one should have the feature enabled too.

So, a bit weird that nothing happens when I try it... I'll experiment some more.

Re: Time-acceleration key?
Just remembered, you also need to have the FPS thingy enabled with Shift+F when you use the arrow keys. That must be the missing detail.
