Time in Factorio can mean different things:
- crafting time - the time the Character needs to craft an item in Game-seconds. For other devices this is multiplied with some handicap or bonus (Modules)
- real time - the time you sit before your computer
- game time - this is measured in Game-ticks or Game-seconds. This is very important.
- game speed factor - the factor which is used to multiply real time to achive game time.
Real time and game time is normally equal, so the factor is normally 1. But you can change it, using the Console and change the Lua/Game#speed.
This is also influenced by the speed of your CPU. If your computer us too slow, the game time automatically decreases to the needed amount, which results in stuttering gameplay.
