Overview

A specific use of player.setav that controls how fast your character moves, with 100 being the default. Doubling it to 200 makes you run noticeably faster, which is great for crossing the map. After setting speedmult you may need to draw and sheathe a weapon, or open and close the map, for the new speed to take effect. Very high values can cause you to clip through terrain.
