📋 About This Mod
Configurable arrival time and timescale when starting a new game.
Description:
You've heard of "Arrive At Night" and "Arrive Before Dawn", now get ready for "Arrive Whenever"!
This mod allows for either randomized or user-configurable arrival time when starting a new game.
The timescale for a new game can also be configured. For reference, when configuring the timescale:
Morrowind default is 30, Skyrim default is 20, real time is 1.
Features & Functionality:
-
[]All settings apply exactly once, when starting a new game. The timescale setting will persist so long it isn't changed later by another mod or by console command.[/]
[]Optionally Randomize your arrival time when starting a new game (Default).[/]
[]Optionally limit randomization to Dawn, Day, Dusk, and Night.[/]
[]Optionally disable randomization in settings, and instead, select an exact offset for your arrival time when starting a new game.[/]
[]Optionally adjust the timescale when starting a new game.[/]
[]Settings can be configured from the settings menu on the title screen, before starting a new game.[/]
Requirements:
-
[]OpenMW 0. 51 or later.[/]
Compatibility:
-
[]The time change is all handled in Lua, and only runs once when starting a new game. This should be compatible with all alternate start mods.[/]
[]If you were previously using Timescale Change, it can be uninstalled, as Arrive Whenever now replaces its functionality. Having both installed won't break anything, but Arrive Whenever's timescale choice will take precedence if it's enabled. [/]
[]Compatible with Dynamic Timescale as of v0. 3.[/]
[]Compatible with Sun's Dusk as of v0. 5[/]

[]The time change is all handled in Lua, and only runs once when starting a new game. This should be compatible with all alternate start mods.[/]
