With the v0.13.0 update, released on March 10, *Fields of Mistria* now lets you control the length of daytime. This feature is accessible to all players, regardless of where they are in their game journey.

To get started, launch your current game save from the Main Menu. Once you're back on your farm, open the Pause Menu and navigate to the **Settings tab** (represented by a cog wheel icon) at the bottom. From there, choose **'Accessibility'** in the left-hand drop-down menu. You'll find the **'Day Time Speed'** option at the top, initially set to 'Standard'.

Click on it, and you'll be cautioned that extending daytime hours might disrupt NPC schedules, which are tailored for the Standard setting. If this isn't a concern for you, you can then adjust the daytime speed to either **'Longer'** or **'Longest'**.

From general observations, 'Longer' significantly extends the daytime, while 'Longest' stretches it even further. For those looking to maximize their daily output, 'Longest' might be the go-to choice.

To activate the new setting, have your character sleep in their bed until the next day. Once the day turns over, the adjusted daytime duration will be in effect. If you wish to change it again, simply follow the same steps outlined above.

In cozy farming simulations like *Fields of Mistria* and its iconic predecessor *Stardew Valley*, time management is key. Typically, players have a finite amount of time each day to manage their farm and engage in town activities. Activities such as mining can consume an entire day, necessitating careful planning to ensure you're back home before exhaustion sets in. The introduction of the Teleportation Chalice has alleviated some of these challenges, but the v0.13.0 update's ability to adjust day length is a game-changer that players are thrilled about.
