Updated 12/06/25: Updated to 1.6

Features:

- Enables ultra fast speed without developer mode
- Adds ultra speed icon
- Allows you to set Event speed multiplier by right clicking the speed arrows. Event speed multiplier defines at which speed the game should run when an event happens. The vanilla game locks you at normal speed during hostile events (eg. combat). This setting is preserved through save/load.
- Mod options to configure the multiplier for each of the four speeds

Event Speed Mode

- Right click on speed control UI
- Slow : x0.5 speed (half of normal speed)
- Normal : x1 speed (default setting)
- Fast : x2 speed (twice normal speed)
- Half : Half of current game speed
- Ignore : Ignore force event speed

Incompatibilities

It has been reported that No Forced Slowdown produces an incompatibility

FAQ

Q: This mod doesn't make my game run faster, what gives?
A: Smart Speed is not a performance mod, what it does is it unlocks (and let's you configure) the speed at which the game runs when you press the speed arrows. If you mod can't run at 1000 TPS, setting speed x4 to 3600 won't magically make it run faster.

Huge thanks to Bradson and Wiri for helping me optimize the code further.

Weirdo!

Just realized that we can go below the previous speed minimum. This is huge game changer for me. Huge thanks man. you are the legend.

effing legend

I like to be able to lock specific speeds since at some point, I will have bogged my save down to the point that I'm lucky to get a consistent 95 tps.. so that's where I would want to lock speed 2 in that instance. Trust me, this is a lifesaver. Thanks for the update.

v9.02:

- Bumped up the max TPS possible in ultra speed to 30000. Note that no computer in the world will reach that
- Tweaked the minimum of all sliders so weirdos can set ANY speed to a minimum of 0.1 tps. Why? No clue, but people keep requesting it

No worries

The debug log doesn't throw any errors, though on further testing it appears to be a vanilla bug introduced in the unstable branch that procs inconsistently so the mod doesn't seem to be the issue, it only seems to exaggerate it a bit when it occurs. I will try contacting the devs instead, sorry for wasting your time.

I'd need: a log with some kind of error / steps to reproduce the bug, as it is obviously not happening to everyone.
Fabunil 22 Aug @ 4:14am 
It happening with the mod enabled and not when it's not, here is an example: https://imgur.com/ChBy6Wu

The mod was enabled for the first 6 days with the game being run at maximum possible speed and disabled afterwards with the game being run at whatever speed is the fastest in vanilla at which point the graph updates normally as it should. The only mods enabled here were harmony and smart speed so smart speed is the culprit. The devs possibly changed something in the beta patches that causes this to happen as it didn't happen on the stable branch iirc.

And your proof is...?
