They say that time stops for no one. While that may be true in real life, in VBS3 you can at least control time. In VBS3, you can speed up or slow down in-game time during a single-player Real Time Editor scenario in the preview mode. Use the main keyboard’s underline/dash key to slow down in-game time and the plus/equal sign key to make time go by faster. Tap the “T” button to pull up the watch.
This is useful for scenario developers who want to move quickly through a scenario for testing. For example, in VBS3, running 5 miles over a landscape could take an hour. Rather than spend that time plodding over the landscape, scenario developers can travel through the scenario at double or triple time.
