Questions about time scale

Post by welk »

I am calibrating time scale of the mod, and I choiced "daily turns" : a tip in localization file allowed me to rename month "May" in TURN, and the setting option allows also alternate date format : that give a perfect "turn illusion"
(the second number has no any importance)

I did not choice "turn numbered" option, because I noticed that in this case, date does not change during game (and scripts based on dates does not work)

And another question, please : what is "turn remaining" option ?

The turn remaining counter tells players how many turns are left, so when the game is nearing its end they will know they have 5, then 4, then 3 turns left, etc.

I would recommend using this.

Ok, thanks. I will probably let this option unchecked, because single battles are more shorter than WW2 vanilla games, and nobody may anticipate the exact moment of end in a battle (suspense of battle)
