How to speed up spell bolt animations?

[kuniqs]

Hi.

Long time 1.1.1 player here (since 2002 or so). Sometimes for reasons that elude me the game would "speed up" bolt animations i.e. they would be "instantenous".
I play 3.3.3 right now but not for long (won a tutorial human fighter, playing a mist elf wizard right now).

Is there a way to force this instant animation? Early/midgame it's nothing, but later with Farsight active all the time and with greater vaults to clear it's really tedious watching the same 20-tile ranged magic missiles slooowly crawling across the screen for 5-10 seconds straight.

Regards,
kuniqs.

You could change the Base_Delay_Factor configuration variable to something lower. You can set it in-game with = , or by manually editing the adom.cfg file. For NotEye versions, the projectile animation setting also affects how bolts animate. You can adjust this with CTRL+m (open NotEye settings), o (animations, scrolling, palette, etc,), p (projectile animation speed).

Thanks, that works.

Out of curiosity: does anyone know why ADOM 1.1.1 reduced this delay to 0 seemingly at random? Was that some kind of bug?
