Le temps et le cycle jour/nuit

Time is measured in ticks.

• 45 ticks make a minute
• 60 minutes make an hour
• 24 hours make a day
• One full day is 64'800 ticks

At normal (1x) speed the clock advances about 60 ticks per real second. One in-game day passes in roughly 18 real minutes.

You change the flow with the speed control, per GAMESYSTEM_Campaign_GameSpeed:

• Pause (arrêt)
• 1x
• 3.5x
• 7x

Pausing stops the clock entirely. At the fastest setting an in-game day passes in about 2.6 real minutes.

Le le compteur de jours change à minuit (00:00). La campagne commence à 08:00, so the very first day is only 16 hours long. Every later day is a full 24.

Day and night are a separate visual and vision layer. It is jour de 06:00 à 20:00 and night otherwise. Night costs 3 vision range.

Time keeps flowing while you are on an expedition, and the clock quietly governs much of the settlement loop:

• Épuisement des ressources recovery
• Candidate refreshes
• Météo

Les données incluent un Dungeon Break scheduler. The constant GAMESYSTEM_PlayLoop_DungeonBreak_AccumBaseTimeCondition counts cumulative campaign campagne in 6 steps: 24 / 48 / 72 / 96 / 120 / 144.

In the current build the row is a dormant constant, tagged Dev_NotUsed. Nothing in these tables consumes it:

• AlertTable
• AffecterTable
• EventTable

Le Échelle de séjour en donjon is the real punishment for long expeditions. Each in-game day spent in the dungeon steps a unit up through the mood debuffs Séjour en donjon (D1) à (D4). The step term is 1'440 minutes, per GAMESYSTEM_Dungeon_StayPenaltyTerm.

The per-stage mood penalty scales with management difficulty:

After the party returns, a Conséquences du séjour en donjon debuff (-2 Humeur) lingers a while longer.
