    The current pre-release of the client ("pioneer" in the version) is only compatible to itself. So you can only play with other testers. Please be aware!

      I did some testing and managed to determine that the formula used is
      Speed Multiplier = 2^(Simspeed/3)

      In other words, every +3 difference in simspeed is a doubling of the simulation tick rate. Here's a handy dandy table for those curious:

      Simspeed Time Factor* *For positive sim speeds the time factor is times faster, for negative sim speeds it is times slower

      Can't say this is the most useful information, but I found it interesting.

          Interesting how they chose a dB scale for it
