After finishing Life During Wartime, in the vanilla game Panam will call you after 12 hours to trigger Riders on the Storm. Which means the time will be 10 AM during the next morning at the earliest, as Life During Wartime always ends at 10 PM. I have edited this timer to 17 hours so she'll call you at 5 PM the next day at the earliest.
There's a time skip to 9:30 PM during Riders on the Storm after you free Saul and he enters the van, so the jump in time won't be too bad if you go and help Panam straight away when she calls you.
After Riders on the Storm, in the vanilla game Panam will again call you after a mere 12 hours to trigger With a Little Help from My Friends. The time would be around 6 PM on the same day, as Riders on the Storm always ends at about 6 AM in the morning. I edited the timer to 1 day and 4 hours. This makes the next mission trigger at around 10 AM the next morning.
This allows the text message from Panam about being back with the clan, with the image attachment of everyone around a campfire at night/late evening, to actually trigger when it's dark (if you install my optional file), instead of the vanilla, immersion breaking behaviour where this text triggers after just a couple of hours after completing Riders on the Storm (around 9 AM to 10 AM).
Lastly we have Queen of the Highway, which shares the timer between Riders on the Storm and With a Little Help from My Friends. Vanilla behaviour is that Panam calls you after 12 hours of completing With a Little Help from My Friends, which contradicts what the mission text says of "wait for a day for the Baslisk to be ready" or something. Now it's the same 1 day 4 hours wait as the previous mission.
The latest point to install this mod is just before completing Life During Wartime to get the full benefits of all the edited timers.
Update 1.1: Added a version that has a 2 days 17 hours delay between Life During Wartime and Riders on the Storm and a 3 days 4 hours delay between Riders on the Storm and With a Little Help from My Friends and the same (3d 4h) between With a Little Help from My Friends and Queen of the Highway.
RedMod and regular Archive versions are available, use only one of them not both.
Main file edits sidequests.questphase, which handles pretty much all the bigger base game sidequests. There could be incompatibilites with some other mods.
Optional file edits sq004_messages.questphase, which is a part of the Riders on the Storm files, so that's much less likely to have compatibility issues.
Recommended mod for more delays:
Live A Little (my optional file and LiveALittleTimers both edit sq004_messages.questphase. If you use my optional file, give the mod you prefer a higher load order)
My other Cyberpunk 2077 mods:
