GK2 Faster Doors

GK2 Faster Doors

Doors in a fraction of the time: no 1-2 s freeze in black, and quicker fades.

On every door and teleport, Graveyard Keeper 2 unloads unused assets and runs a full memory clean-up while the screen is black. On a grown save that freezes the game for 1-2 seconds, every time. This mod lets most doors skip it:

• The full clean-up still runs on every 10th door, or sooner when the game's memory has grown by 300 MB since the last one, so memory levels off.
• Loading a save always gets the full clean-up.
• Doors you walk through and map travel fade faster (0.15 s instead of 0.3 s each way) and wait less in black (0.1 s instead of 0.3 s). Cutscenes, fights and quest scripts keep the game's own timing.
• A hotkey can switch the mod off and on while playing, to compare with the unmodded game. It isn't set by default: pick one in the settings.
• No balance changes, no saves touched.

Don't combine it with Instant Transitions or GK2 Performance: they change the same door code. The log warns if one of them is installed.

Settings

In the Mods menu (with GK2 Mod Framework), in ConfigurationManager (F1) or in BepInEx/config/gk2.fasterdoors.cfg:

• General.Enabled: skip the clean-up on most doors.
• General.FullCleanupEveryDoors (10): the full clean-up runs at least on every Nth door. 1 = every door, like the unmodded game.
• General.FullCleanupAfterGrowthMB (300): run it sooner once memory has grown this much.
• General.GcOnSkippedDoors (on): where the game has no incremental garbage collection, a skipped door still gets a quick managed collection.
• Transitions.Enabled (on): faster fades for your own doors and map travel.
• Transitions.FadeSeconds (0.15): each fade, to black and back. The game: 0.3.
• Transitions.BlackPauseSeconds (0.1): pause in black. The game: 0.3.
• Hotkeys.Toggle (not set): switch the mod off and on for this session.
