How to speed up NOS3 Time Driver?

[ephraim71]

I want to run at 2x speed
I see some relevant code here, but how do I access it?

    switch(key) {
                    case 'p':
                    case 'P':
                        if (_pause_ticks == UINT_MAX) _pause_ticks = _time_counter;
                        else _pause_ticks = UINT_MAX;
                        break;
                    case '+':
                        if (100 * _real_microseconds_per_tick > _sim_microseconds_per_tick) _real_microseconds_per_tick /= 2; // no faster than 200x real time
                        break;
                    case '-':
                        if (_real_microseconds_per_tick < _sim_microseconds_per_tick * 100) _real_microseconds_per_tick *= 2; // no slower than 0.005x real time
                        break;
                    case 'r':
                    case 'R':
                        scanf("%lf", &pause_duration);
                        _pause_ticks = _time_counter + pause_duration * 1000000 / _sim_microseconds_per_tick;
                        break;
                    case 'u':
                    case 'U':
                        scanf("%lf", &pause_at);
                        _pause_ticks = (pause_at - _absolute_start_time) * 1000000 / _sim_microseconds_per_tick;
                        break;
                }

Hi @ephraim71,
As you launch NOS3 you should have a number of terminal windows. For example:

In the NOS Time Driver window shown in the top left of the above image you can access those interfaces to pause, play, and speed up or slow down time. Note that the actual speed-up will be listed and will hit a peak depending on the number of resources and complexity of the simulated scenario.
