Less passengers when forwarding too fast (bug?)

[haphaeu]

Hei there,

just noticed a strange behaviour. The game was running with constant profit, under normal fast forward (W key - approx x30).
But then, in order to get out of the loan quicker, I forced a faster forward by pressing dot key (.) until the time reached x100.
After that, the passengers just wouldn't travel anymore.
Look at the picture attached. I forced fast forward x100 at about  month 11... look what happens. And even more evident, at month 2 I switched back to the normal fast forward ... then voi-là, the passengers are all back!

If you push the game too much, it will run the step fewer times. At the same time the mouse will lagging. For fast forward, please ratehr use the fast forward tool. (I think we should remove the . and , keybinding, and rather add a new tool setting the fast forward multiplier with them).

Would it be better for the game simply to refuse to run beyond a certain speed rather than run that fast and go wrong as demonstrated?

[kierongreen]

Maybe limit speed to x10 maximum? Or if the game detects it is not running step frequently enough it automatically drops the speed (unless already running at x1 speed)?

x10 max is probably a sensible limit, beyond that revert to the regular fast forward. I'd rather the , and . functions not be removed, far too handy.
The problem with high T= factors is steps running too frequently, too small a delta_t. Step could add them up on each call and only process the actual step once a large enough cumulative value is reached?
