Feature request: Add the ability to adjust the speed of the background movement in the settings.

[Frizy13]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I often find that the background moves too fast, which sometimes makes me feel a little dizzy.

Describe the solution you'd like It would be nice to add an additional option in the settings menu to solve this problem.

Describe alternatives you've considered If you can't add an extra option, you can hardcode the speed of the background in the code itself.

I second this, especially since it's rather easy to get dizzy looking at the background. (And can you believe I used to have it at higher speeds for earlier versions of the game?) I think that at the same time I should probably look into other ways to make the background less intensive in general, because it's been bugging me for a while. Maybe adding in some sort of motion blur for the background only would help? I think adding this as well will work to help ease things up for everyone, so I'll create another feature request for that.

Also, I think this would fit best as a slider because then it can just be plugged in to playback_speed for the AnimationPlayer responsible for spinning the sky.

Note: Even though there was a PR for this feature (thanks a ton, by the way, and the progress bar with a hint looks really nice!) I still need to iron out some bugs so I'll leave this open until code's merged into stable or feature-additions if I want to add it in 0.5.0 (but I think since the background can make people feel dizzy I should try to add this in the next point release)

[Frizy13]

I assume the feature already works? Or is there something else that needs to be done to make it stable?

[pastthepixels]

Yeah, I've gotten it to a stable state 2 days ago (at least from I've tested). I just haven't gotten the chance to merge it with anything but I'll do that now.

[pastthepixels]

Just merged that branch with stable so I'll close this now.
