I love the effect, but I prefer to avoid changing balance too much. What if I left a trail when moving above a certain speed, or when my exoskeletons are enabled?

Thanks for your feedback! One of the next things I will be working on is the ability to tweak the speed boost and time slowdown factor, so that it can be changed to accommodate the desired playing style.

Fair enough. Your mod, your creative vision :) Thanks for considering my request!

A new version is available for the grabs. There are two (global map) settings added; one controls how much the game is slowed down (you can set this to 100 to disable slow down) and the other one is for the character movement bonus on top of force bonus (by research etc) and individual exoskeletons.

I might add a small GUI but that will take some time to get it right.

Bonus feature: When standing still random sparks appear around the character to indicate that flashtime is still enabled.
