When adding numbers 1, 2, 3 to cooking dialogue boxes, the game automatically overrides the game pause function and also starts playing at that speed: i.e. inserting 3 speeds up the game to 3 times faster.
This has been happening since Alpha 9 so should work in any game - have played 7 games since noticing and happens in every game.
Edit: Should have added that it occurs when adding numbers (1,2,3) to the brewing box as well 
Now it’s on there.
