I think you can preload them or just wait and it will preload them and then you can play it around 10FPS which is as fast as you'd want to in order to catch all the action, but doing this manually with images in a viewer would be pretty tedious, I would think.

It's quite clever actually, and pauses on interesting frames with dialogue, as voted by people previously? or something: https://github.com/deplicator/xkcdTime_atyourownpace/blob/ma...

The pause-on-interesting-frames feature doesn't work too well when there's disagreement over whether a frame is interesting, unfortunately. If the number of Yes and No votes both exceed some fixed threshold, then it marks the frame as "debated" and only stops on it if you tell it to stop on debated frames - which includes both frames with an overwhelming majority of Yes votes and ones with an overwhelming majority of No votes.

Yeah, I didn't notice the preloading option earlier. With the preloading, it is a lot better.
