</>What does Red Tape Cutter (Instant Kingdom Projects) do?
Running a barony in Pathfinder: Kingmaker means waiting. A single project can swallow two or three in-game weeks, and there is nothing to do with that time except sit in the throne room and press the button that makes days go past. Red Tape Cutter gives those weeks back. Set the Project Speed dial and everything on your kingdom board finishes that many times sooner. Ten times faster turns a fortnight of shoring up a border region into a day and a half. If you would rather not wait at all, switch on Finish Projects Instantly and anything you start is done the same day. The best part is that it works on jobs already in progress. Turn it on halfway through a long build and your advisors catch up immediately, rather than you having to cancel and start over. There is a third switch for the other kind of waiting. Some projects charge you travelling days on top of their own timer, which is how a quick bit of kingdom admin quietly costs you a week of adventuring and a forced rest. Advisors Keep Their Days stops that, so you can duck into the throne room, get things moving, and walk straight back out to the Stolen Lands with your schedule intact. Your barony has to exist first. The kingdom layer opens up in Chapter 2, when you are made baron and the throne room becomes yours, so until then there is nothing here to speed up and the mod will tell you it is ready and waiting for the moment there is.
</>What is Red Tape Cutter (Instant Kingdom Projects)?
The kingdom layer is the part of Pathfinder: Kingmaker players complain about most, and the reason is always the same: one project can swallow two or three in-game weeks you spend skipping days in an empty throne room. Red Tape Cutter hands those weeks back. There is a speed dial for the whole kingdom board, an instant option that also catches up jobs already running, and a switch that stops kingdom admin eating your adventuring week. Premium on ProjectMods, and it goes to work the moment your barony opens up in Chapter 2.
</>Common questions about Red Tape Cutter (Instant Kingdom Projects)
What does Red Tape Cutter do in Pathfinder: Kingmaker?
Red Tape Cutter removes the waiting from kingdom projects and events in Pathfinder: Kingmaker. Set the Project Speed dial and everything on your kingdom board finishes that many times sooner, so at ten a fortnight of shoring up a border region becomes about a day and a half. If you would rather not wait at all, Finish Projects Instantly has projects wrap up the same day they begin. A third switch, Advisors Keep Their Days, stops certain projects charging you travelling days simply for starting them.
Does it work on projects that are already in progress?
Yes, and that is the part players usually appreciate most. Turn Red Tape Cutter on halfway through a long Pathfinder: Kingmaker build and your advisors catch up immediately, rather than you having to cancel the project and start it over from the beginning. With Finish Projects Instantly switched on, anything already running finishes on the next day that passes, while newly started projects wrap up the same day they begin. The speed dial applies to in-progress work the same way, so a project you started three weeks ago suddenly has far less left.
What are the travelling days that Advisors Keep Their Days stops?
Some Pathfinder: Kingmaker projects charge you calendar days on top of their own timer, as though your advisors have to travel before the job can even start. That is how a quick bit of kingdom admin quietly costs you a week of adventuring and sometimes a forced rest on top of it. Switch on Advisors Keep Their Days and those costs go to nothing, so you can duck into the throne room, set everything moving, and walk straight back out to the Stolen Lands with your schedule intact.
What project speed should I set the dial to?
Ten is the number most players land on for Pathfinder: Kingmaker, because it turns a fortnight-long project into roughly a day and a half, which is fast enough that the kingdom stops being a waiting room but slow enough that projects still feel like they take time. One leaves the timings exactly as the game shipped them. If you want the kingdom layer to stop consuming calendar altogether, skip the dial and use Finish Projects Instantly instead. The dial is live, so you can run one chapter fast and put it back for the next.
Do I need a barony before Red Tape Cutter does anything?
Yes. Everything it does acts on the kingdom layer of Pathfinder: Kingmaker, which only opens up once you are made baron and the throne room becomes yours in Chapter 2. Until then there are no projects to speed up, so the mod simply sits there and tells you it is ready and waiting for the moment your barony exists. Once it does, Red Tape Cutter pairs naturally with Master Builder, because one takes the wait out of projects and events while the other takes it out of construction and region claims, and between them the throne room stops being a calendar simulator.
What options does Red Tape Cutter (Instant Kingdom Projects) include?
Advisors Keep Their Days
Some projects charge you travelling days just for starting them. Switch this on and they cost you nothing, so kingdom admin no longer eats your adventuring week.
Project Speed
How many times faster your kingdom work finishes. At 10, a fortnight of building becomes about a day and a half. Leave it at 1 for normal timings.
Finish Projects Instantly
Kingdom projects and events wrap up the same day they begin. Anything already running finishes on the next day that passes.
Red Tape Cutter is a premium Pathfinder: Kingmaker mod on ProjectMods that takes the waiting out of kingdom management. A speed dial makes projects and events finish many times sooner, an instant option wraps them up the same day you start them, and a third stops projects charging your advisors travelling days. It works on the kingdom layer, which opens once you are made baron in Chapter 2.
