Setting Fixed Timestep (Project Settings) by script?

Unity Engine
1

Hi,

I wonder if the “Fixed Timestep” value in the Project Settings section (Edit => Project Settings => Time) can be altered by script? I would like to change this value so it fits the currents (mobile) device hardware capabilities.

Thanks!

Regards, Axel

// Sets to 20 fps
Time.fixedDeltaTime = 0.05f;

On a related note, any way to change the “Maximum Allowed Timestep” value by script at runtime?

In answer to my own question, “Time.maximumDeltaTime”.

Do you know if this changes the maximum allowed timestep globally (for every scripts) or locally (for the script it’s mentioned in)?

Time is a global static class, as you can see from the online documentation for it.
