Acceleration while docked
Posted: Sat Dec 15, 2012 2:42 pm
If you dock while time is accelerated, it isn't possible to change acceleration. Can this be fixed? If not, how about resetting acceleration to 1:1 when docking?

Oh, not sure I like that. I use TAF a lot, like when flying to the sun to refuel on long delivery runs. I suppose I could write an AutoIt script to 1. Turn on FPS, 2. Pause, 3. Set TAF to x16, 4. Un-pause, 5. Turn off FPS, and another script to set it back to 1x again.Diziet Sma wrote:(along with making it only possible to manually alter TAF when the framerate is being displayed, to avoid oopses)
The idea was to prevent the accidental speeding up of the TAF while paused (as happened to a number of people, who were then mystified when subsequent combat bouts seemed so much more frantic than usual)PhilHibbs wrote:Oh, not sure I like that.

Code: Select all
alertConditionChanged = function (new, old)
{ if (new == 1) timeAccelerationFactor = 16;
else timeAccelerationFactor = 1;
}Isn't there an OXP which does exactly that?PhilHibbs wrote:If you dock while time is accelerated, it isn't possible to change acceleration. Can this be fixed? If not, how about resetting acceleration to 1:1 when docking?
Thanks!Commander McLane wrote:TAF Reset OXP is what you want to install.
