I know it's been a long time since your reply but I've just gotten back on the
project and gave your reply a read. I did a quick test and it looks like this
solution should do what I want... I'll try it out.
Thanks muchly,
Sterling

There is no obvious reason for why that should not be possible (though
some subsystems may inappropriately use real time instead of simulation
time).
Have you tried setting the property /sim/speed-up to a fractional value
directly? (It appears to be a double in the property tree - but I don't
know if that is actually the property used to set the simulation rate.)
Another (hackish) way that should work is to set
/sim/frame-rate-throttle-hz to a frame rate your system achives (say 50)
and
/sim/max-simtime-per-frame to less than 1/50, say 0.01 to force a
simulation rate of 0.5 or less (depending on your frame rate).
Properties can be set from the command line with
--prop:/sim/frame-rate-throttle-hz=50
--prop:/sim/max-simtime-per-frame=0.01
or in FG via the property browser (I think these properties can be changed
at runtime - but that is not the case for all properties).
Cheers,
Anders
