Thanks to the v0.13.0 update released on March 10, you can now modify the duration of daytime hours in *Fields of Mistria*. This feature is accessible to all players, regardless of their progression in the game.

To start, load 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** (indicated by the cog wheel icon) at the bottom. From the left-hand drop-down menu, select **‘Accessibility’**. You'll find the **‘Day Time Speed’** option at the top, which defaults to ‘Standard’.

Select it, and you'll receive a warning that extending daytime might affect certain NPC schedules, which are optimized for the Standard setting. If this isn’t a concern for you, you can adjust the daytime speed to either **‘Longer’** or **‘Longest’**. Observations suggest that ‘Longer’ significantly extends daytime, while ‘Longest’ offers even more time, making it the preferred choice for many.

To activate your chosen setting, simply have your character sleep in their bed until the next day. The new daytime duration will then take effect. To switch settings again, just repeat the process.

In cozy farming sims like *Fields of Mistria* and *Stardew Valley*, time management is crucial. With only a limited number of hours each day to manage your farm and engage in town activities, every minute counts. Tasks like mining can consume an entire day, and you need to plan your return home carefully to avoid passing out. The Teleportation Chalice alleviates some of these issues, but the v0.13.0 update's ability to extend daytime is a game-changer that players are thrilled about.
