Description
This mod adds an alternate super fast wait menu, where you type the weeks, days and hours you want to wait. For weeks an days, only whole number are accepted. For hours you can use decimals. ie 1. 5 hours equals 1 and a half hours. If you don't want to wait any weeks/days/hours just press enter to continue to the next input box. You can also turn off or on boxes in the MCM. You can also cancel the wait anytime by pressing the hotkey again. The wait menu is completely separate from the vanilla wait menu.
As of version 1. 2 I also added a Set Date hotkey, which allows you to set the date to any year, month and day. Doing this will also possibly advance time by 1-6 days, to set the correct weekday as far as the game is concerned. Setting the date will be faster than waiting anytime over 1 week.
Setting the hours interval determines how many hours skip when waiting, to show passage of time. If waiting multiple days, you can specify how many of those days use the hours interval. For example: Set the hours interval to 6, and the days to 3, and wait for 7 days. The first 4 days will pass a day at a time, and the last 3 days will pass in intervals of 6 hours, 4 per day, showing the passage of time. Set the days to 0 to have all days pass 1 at a time, which is fastest. As a test, I set it to 0 and waited a whole year, 365 days, and it took a little over a minute real time to complete.
Waiting 3 days or more with this mod does reset cells and merchant inventories, which is convenient when trying to bugfix or troubleshoot other mods.

Compatibility
The pause needs option is available for Vitality Mode, iNeed and Realistic Needs and Diseases 2. 0. Any mod that changes the form ID's of those mods may conflict with the pause needs option, as this mod uses the GetFormFromFile function. This also means that if you changed any of those mods to ESL, the pause needs option won't work, as changing to ESL changes form ID's.
Requirements
SkyUiLib :This is a link to Skyrim LE, it does work on SSE and is required.

Super Fast Input Wait Menu replaces Skyrim's clunky wait system with a text-based interface where you type weeks, days, and hours directly. It includes a Set Date hotkey for jumping to any date, and configurable time intervals to balance speed with visual passage of time. Ideal for players who wait frequently and want precision and speed.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Massive time-saver—waiting a full year takes just over a minute, compared to vanilla's slow ticking.
- Precise control with decimals for hours and whole numbers for weeks/days, plus a Set Date hotkey for exact dates.
- Community-trusted with 497 endorsements and over 13k downloads, showing it's a proven utility.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2020, so it may have compatibility issues with newer Skyrim versions or mods that alter the same systems.
- The Set Date feature can advance time by 1-6 days, which might mess with quests or timed events if you're not careful.
- Potential conflicts with mods that change the form IDs of Vitality Mode, iNeed, or RND, as noted in the description.
For Skyrim players who are tired of holding the wait key and want to skip long periods quickly, especially those who frequently wait for shops to restock or for quest timers. Also great for modders troubleshooting other mods, thanks to the cell reset feature. Skip if you prefer immersive waiting or rarely use the wait function.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Set the hours interval to 0 for the fastest waiting—it skips day-by-day entirely, which is perfect for long waits.
- Use the Set Date hotkey to jump to a specific date, but be aware it may advance time by a few days to match the weekday.
- If you use survival mods like iNeed, enable the pause needs option in the MCM to avoid starving or getting tired while waiting.
