Travel Between Planets and Orbit Around Them (Ship Speed Modifier)
WARNING: I’M NOT A REAL MODDER AND I DON’T KNOW THE DEFAULT SPEED VALUES. These are the custom values I use and that fit my playstyle and ship. If you want to revert to the default speed values make sure to back up your saves, I won’t be able to help you!
I know there’s a similar mod that tries to accomplish this, but it didn’t work for me personally, so I thought I could share here what worked for me.
This is a simple mod that allows the player to travel really fast to orbit a planet or to go to near planets and moons without the need to fast travel. It works for traveling to planets that are very far away too, but it will probably still take you several real life hours to reach them.
It consists of a series of bat commands to set different speeds to your ship tuned to my personal liking: Slow, Medium and Fast.
INSTALLATION:
Copy the files to your game directory. (Where the .exe is located)
HOW TO USE:
Inside your game, go to third person and open the console. Click on your ship. Once the ship ID number is on the screen, type ONE of these commands at a time to change the speed according to your needs:
To set the speed of your ship to Slow, type: bat s
To set the speed of your ship to Medium, type: bat m
To set the speed of your ship to Fast, type: bat f
NOTES:
– To make the boost infinite during the fast speed, it uses the tgm command (god mode). This is reverted if you change to a different speed or type the same speed command twice, so make sure tgm is properly disabled after you change speeds (there’s a log at the bottom of the console that tells you if god mode is enabled or disabled).
– The speed is a little tricky to control, so you can easily overshoot your trajectory while trying to approach a planet. If you go straight into the planet you will pass through it.
Feel free to comment any input you have about the mod or if you know a better way to make this work. I would like to know the original speed values to have a bat file to revert to the default ones.
