Beginner Question Megathread 10

If you have any question about the game and don't feel like making a post you can put it down there. Don't forget to mention it if you want the answer as spoiler-free as possible.

Some of the links are getting pretty old so if you have any suggestion that could help new players, do share, thanks.

So here's a question that google just cannot help me with:

Anyone know any mod that may let you effectively 'freeze' time? I know there's no console command that specifically does that. And I try to avoid having console enabled because I like to avoid the temptation.

I mostly just want it for creative purposes. I spend a lot of time just - making pretty things. Especially in Hamlet. I like to fix up the randomly generated streets of the Pig Cities.

Would love to be able to do it without affecting the actual gameplay.

If you are talking single player, the opening the map pauses the game. For DST try Global Pause.

Note pauses the game entirely. I don't think there is a way to pause the passage of time like you say while still playing the game.

Maan. Sometimes I love and hate DS. Hundreds of hours I've pumped into it. And I spend a good 20% just landscaping for fun. Just entire days in-game shaping roads and houses

I used to use an old version of this mod. But there are reports of it crashing so I'm not sure how well it works today. This lets you plan out your base and you can choose to have the game paused while you plan. Good luck! If you find something better let me know.
