Bothering mod authors will lead to warnings and repeat offenses will lead to eventual bans.
A super simple mod that removes the option to select a timezone before a raid since it's what the founding fathers intended.
(Excluding Factory)
Why?
Progression. Having the option to change time zones eliminates a lot of the need for night time gameplay. This mod aims to make getting your hands on gear like night vision, flashlights, and IR-lasers during the early game just so much more important to survive and thrive in Tarkov. Not being able to skip to day time also introduces a lot more variety between raids and forces you to not run the same kit every raid.
Recommended Mods
That's Lit
QuoteOne step closer to fair gameplay, by giving AIs non-perfect vision and reactions. Because we too deserve grasses, bushes and nights.
Makes AIs respond to your surrounding light environment, which makes sticking to the shadows more encouraged, as you are more visible under lamps & moonlight. Bots with NVGs & Thermals are also a lot tougher.
BORKEL'S REALISTIC NIGHT VISION GOGGLES
Just way better looking nvgs that also let you see your surroundings through your peripheral. This mod also emulates tube generations which means you wont get nearly the same performance through a cheap Russian Gen 2 tube as a more expensive one. (Again, deeper progression)

Awesome mod
out of curiosity why can we still choose a time on factory?
and could that also be locked to one time zone
Thank you

I sincerely implore you to create a mod that allows you to disable game settings on the preparation page。Because one of my buddies will disable AI before the game, evade battles to obtain supplies, and activate a large number of AI in Savage mode to search for loot。This behavior has already been imitated by other friends, which is not right. I hope we can play a green game

Can i ask for a mechanic to set it to my local time and then have it based on that? Tho also allow to adjust it due the 1 hour time difference from summer/winter. Just really have wanted the immersion to play at my real time. since that was removed from SPT a few version ago where they stopped basing it from local time.
By hopes that this is possible tho as far I've heard mod should be able to.

Your mod is very good! Can I distribute this MOD to the ODDBA website? They may also need such a realistic mod
birgere Author
Thank you! And yes that would be fine, would appreciate if you linked to my github or somehow gave credit but yes Also have an extended version of this mod coming soon
TLSerendipity
Thank you

Love the idea. for making it even more realistic it would be nice to have the option to sync the time with your real time aka local. I say the option cuz many people will not have time to play in particular hours but for those early morning raids or late night is awesome! nice job!

brutal, love the id
birgere Author
Lmao. I'm thinking about making a "Power Outage" mod too which could mesh really well with the night gameplay too
kotito6969
man thats a great id, like a event inraid! that would be some dope stuff!!
trap
That reminds me the good old Immersive raids mod made by kobra -> Immersive Raids

Now we really need the Sleep option in the hideout that could help you skip time costing food and water
Mudcrab
That is an amazing idea
Fegeer
Cool idea! Might be way too hardcore though

So does thie mean we have to wait until night to progress night time quests?
Interesting idea but might feel tedious sometimes. Will try it out nevertheless.

It does yes. I only feel it adds some depth to planning a raid but yeah not for everyone. Idk if it is possible but it could help to speed up the day night cycle

I like the idea of the mod. But it would be awesome to have an option to see what time is it right now. In this case you could at least prepare your gear for night or day time.

I'll see what I can do! For now this website could help though: https://tarkov-time.adam.id.au

I've updated the mod to not remove the whole panel so you can see the current time
AcidMC
Little idealist asshole in me says one gots to remove 'select time phase'. It may be theoretically done by replacing the relevant strings with empty texts, since it's a locale thing obviously.
birgere Author
Certainly imagine so! I am extending this mod a bit and have managed to remove the "CURRENT WEATHER CONDITIONS" text to make room for other stuff
Galm276
So does this go off of your system time, or is it just night only?
birgere Author
It essentially just always uses the "left timezone", and just removes the option to choose the "right-most timezone" that skips forward 12 in game hours
