Usage and hotkeys

Default hotkeys (customizable in `config.ini`):

CTRL + UP: Increase speed
CTRL + DOWN: Decrease speed
CTRL + HOME: Reset to default speed (1.0x)
CTRL + END: Pause storm (0.0x)
CTRL + PGUP: Jump to max speed
CTRL + F8: Cycle to the next profile (when profiles are enabled)
CTRL + F6: Clear/disable profile (return to default settings)

Configuration (config.ini)

Open `StormControl/config.ini`. Common options:

default=1.0 ; speed after reset (1.0 = normal)

min=0.0 ; lowest speed (0.0 pauses the storm)

max=100.0 ; highest speed you can jump to

step=1.0 ; how much each press changes speed

increase_speed=CTRL+UP

decrease_speed=CTRL+DOWN

reset_speed=CTRL+HOME

stop_storm=CTRL+END

max_speed=CTRL+PGUP

switch_profile=CTRL+F8

clear_profile=CTRL+F6

enabled=true ; show a small overlay briefly when speed/profile changes

Profiles (custom runs and mod integration)

Enable a profile:

Copy `StormControl/profiles/Example.ini` and rename it (e.g., `MyRun.ini`).
In `StormControl/config.ini` set:

enabled=true

name=MyRun

While playing:

CTRL + F8 cycles available profiles in the `profiles` folder.
CTRL + F6 clears/disables the active profile.

For mod authors (ship a profile with your mod):

Include a file like `StormControl/profiles/MyMod.ini`.
Suggest users enable it by adding to `StormControl/config.ini`:

enabled=true

name=MyMod

Keep multipliers proportional (they multiply the user’s base speed). Example skeleton:

; Optional: overlay on/off when this profile is active

OverlayEnabled=true

; Day 1

; Phase 0 (07:00-12:30) multiplier on Day 1

PhaseStartSpeedDay1=1.0

; Phase 1 (12:30-16:06) multiplier on Day 1

PhaseFirstCircleSpeedDay1=1.0

; Phase 2 (16:06-20:24) multiplier on Day 1

PhaseBetweenWavesSpeedDay1=1.0

; Phase 3 (20:24-23:59) multiplier on Day 1

PhaseSecondCircleSpeedDay1=1.0

; Day 2

; Phase 0 (07:00-12:30) multiplier on Day 2

PhaseStartSpeedDay2=1.0

; Phase 1 (12:30-16:06) multiplier on Day 2

PhaseFirstCircleSpeedDay2=1.0

; Phase 2 (16:06-20:24) multiplier on Day 2

PhaseBetweenWavesSpeedDay2=1.0

; Phase 3 (20:24-23:59) multiplier on Day 2

PhaseSecondCircleSpeedDay2=1.0

Overlay

When you change speed or switch profiles, a small overlay appears briefly in the top‑right showing the effective speed. Turn it off via ` enabled=false` in `config.ini`.

Hot reload

Edits to `config.ini` are picked up automatically in‑game.
If a profile is active, saving its `.ini` hot‑reloads it, and the overlay confirms the reload.

Special thanks to JackelZXA for taking the time to explain and for pointing out the event files that were a big help during the reverse engineering process.
