Increase the speed to Multiplayer

Hi, I played a few rounds on the multiplayer and I think it handy to have the option to increase the speed of let's go for 2x, 3x normal speed because it is a knockout.
I'm sorry if he made mistakes but I'm using Google Translator. :D

Why speeding up? The game is already going too fast. :D
Kick fast, think Bo.

To me this does not really match the speed;/.

Yeah, especially after pt there is too much to do. I'm hardly sitting back during a game.

Re: Increase the speed to Multiplayer

When I push the F11 key, I received a window, and so is the speed of x300 and how to activate the game terribly cut, why? I have a good computer.

Re: Increase the speed to Multiplayer

When I push the F11 key, I received a window, and so is the speed of x300 and how to activate the game terribly cut, why? I have a good computer.
Because simulating KaM at 300x speed with more than just a few units takes a massive amount of CPU power. 300x means it tries to process 5 minutes of game in 1 second. So that's like if you played for 5 minutes then asked your CPU to do all that processing again in just 1 second. Processing the game is prioritised over rendering it (rendering is only done when the game is idle), so mostly rendering stops altogether at 300x.

If you can run at 10 km/hour, then if you were sped up 300x you'd be going at 3000 km/hour, more than twice the speed of sound.
Don't under estimate how big x300 really is ;)

On a side note the F11 debug panel isn't intended for everyday use. We have a x300 button to make it go "as fast as possible" for stuff like seeing what kind of village the AI builds after an hour. We don't want it to render because that makes it slower and we're only interested in the end result.

Re: Increase the speed to Multiplayer

It should be in the options before the game, for example. Game Speed ​​1.5 for 15 minutes etc

Re: Increase the speed to Multiplayer

I still don't see the use of it.
The only moment I have to wait 30 sec is when my 3 builders are building the first school, but then speeding up would just ruin the game.
Kick fast, think Bo.
