A time-dilation and gameplay-pacing modification for Graveyard Keeper 2 that gives you full control over the progression of in-game time. Adjust the pace of the entire 24-hour cycle using a single global multiplier, or independently calibrate individual durations for daytime, nighttime, and dusk/sunset transitions. In the unmodded game, a complete day lasts approximately 7.5 real-time minutes; this mod lets you eliminate time pressure and carve out enough daylight for long-term crafting, building, and dungeon expeditions.
Key Features:
- Global Day-Night Multiplier — Easily stretch or compress the entire 24-hour simulation cycle with a single master value.
- Independent Phase Modifiers — Discrete controls to scale daytime, nighttime, and dusk transition phases on their own terms.
- Adaptive Integration — Operates cleanly as a standalone BepInEx plugin while automatically hooking into the GK2 Mod Framework UI when present.
- Frictionless Configuration — Simple .cfg setup with zero keybind conflicts or unnecessary runtime key monitors.
- Zero Overhead — Minimal CPU footprint during gameplay with clean English diagnostic logging for troubleshooting.
How It Works & Calculation Logic:
The runtime speed for each specific slice of the day is resolved using the formula:
- DayLengthMultiplier × PhaseMultiplier
- Global 2.0, all phases 1.0: The entire day-night cycle lasts twice as long (~15 real-world minutes).
- Global 1.0, DayMultiplier 2.0: Daytime hours last twice as long while nights remain standard length.
- Global 1.0, NightMultiplier 0.5: Nights pass by at double speed.
- Global 1.0, DayMultiplier 3.0, NightMultiplier 2.0: Both daytime and nighttime are heavily extended.
Installation & Configuration Instructions:
- Verify that BepInEx 5.4.23.5 or newer is installed in your Graveyard Keeper 2 root directory.
- Launch the game once and exit to initialize folder paths.
- Copy GK2LongerDays.dll into:
BepInEx/plugins/ - Launch the game again to trigger automatic configuration generation, then exit.
- Open the configuration file in any text editor:
BepInEx/config/com.example.gk2.daylength.cfg - Tune your desired multiplier values, save the file, and boot the game to apply changes.
