Unless I'm missing something, the only way to slow/increase time is to physically move your mouse over the tiiiiiny little slider bar, click on it, and then move it.
For example, if I want to go from 1% speed to 2% speed, I have to move that slider bar ever so slightly a pixel to the right.... wait, damn.. now it went from 1% to 3%, then back to 1%. Better fidget with it for a while until I get what I want....
As you can see this isn't really the best way to be doing things, and this method is especially dependent on your screen resolution and your current framerate. Anything under 1366x768 has extreme difficulty moving the time-slider bar a single percent.
Seems pretty obvious to me that we need a key-press to increase/decrease the time-slider by 1% increments.
In addition, we could also have preset buttons for different speeds, like [1%, 5%, 10%, 25%, 33%, 50%, 67%, 75%, 100%] These would replace the VERY tiny (0%, 50%, 100%) buttons that currently exist, or they could be defaulted to F-keys above the number bar.
Using both these systems combined allows players (especially those without a mouse) to get to any time setting with just a few key-presses.<style type="text/css">img.imageResizerActiveClass{cursor:nw-resize !important;outline:1px dashed black !important;} img.imageResizerChangedClass{z-index:300 !important;max-width:none !important;max-height:none !important;} img.imageResizerBoxClass{margin:auto; z-index:99999 !important; position:fixed; top:0; left:0; right:0; bottom:0; border:1px solid white; outline:1px solid black;} </style>
