Solved Place Everywhere F11 Timescale Hotkey

I have never changed the timescale in game and have read that it can have adverse affects/break Sim Settlements. Has anyone used the Place Everywhere F11 Hotkey in build mode? How does it work? Does the timescale automatically revert upon exiting build mode? Most importantly, is it safe to use without adversely affecting Sim Settlements?
 
It sets time to practically zero only while in workshop.
The default time scale is 20.
All settlement upgrades and basically anything that requires time to pass will pause while you use it.
 
If you are using it because you want to stay in daylight I recommend using GCM. It has time adjustment plus lots of other really useful tools. It requires MCM to be installed.

Alternatively, you can use this command every time it starts getting dark; set gamehour to 11

Thanks for the tips. I will look into it. The daylight is a factor. But the main thing is that I play the game in survival mode and I can run out of food while building a city from scratch.
 
Do you use WS+?
I'm not sure as I never play survival, but it gives immunity to all damage so my feeling is that it would prevent hunger/thirst, I might be wrong on this though.
 
if you have the right perks you don't need to worry for food, water or sleep. just let all the penalties active while building, until you have to go
 
Workshop Plus. It's another KingGath mod and you are in for a treat if you never used it before.
It's amazing, I just couldn't build without it or Place.
