This runbook covers TODOS.phase-72.72.13.2.12: global game speed adjustment from 0.5x to 1.0x for players who need more reaction time.

Runtime Surface#

Game speed adjustment is stored on the per-player timing profile so it uses the same startup restore path as timed puzzle, QTE, and dodge timing assists:

  • profile: FV2TimingAdjustmentProfile
  • resolved state: FV2ResolvedTimingAdjustment
  • settings row: Settings.Accessibility.GlobalGameSpeed
  • setter: UV2InputBlueprintLibrary::SetGlobalGameSpeedScalar
  • scalar helper: ResolveGlobalGameSpeedScalar
  • delta helper: ResolveGlobalGameSpeedDeltaSeconds
  • persistence snapshot: FV2PlayerSettingsSnapshot
  • contract: V2/ue/Content/V2/Input/Accessibility/GameSpeedAdjustmentSystem_V2_Contract.json
  • focused checker: V2/ue/Tools/check-v2-game-speed-adjustment.py

Behavior#

The setting is a 50-100 percent slider in 5 percent steps. It defaults to 100 percent, resolves to a GlobalGameSpeedScalar from 0.5x to 1.0x, and applies as single-player world time dilation. Any value below 1.0x is opt-in, ranked-disabled, tournament-restricted, saved per profile, and restored before gameplay.

The scalar is frame-data inert: authored move data, dodge invulnerability, and competitive timing tables remain unchanged. Runtime consumers apply the resolved world-speed scalar to elapsed simulation time only in eligible single-player contexts.

Verification#
