Multiple Turns Per Year script

Multiple Turns/Seasons Per Year
otherwise known as the "Four turns per year script"

DOWNLOAD

What does it do?
This script allows you to edit the number of turns there are before a year elapses. You can use it to make each turn represent one of the four seasons, or a month per turn.

How does it work?
By using RTW's internal scripting language - the same thing that controls the prologue. For more information on scripting, read the two excellent guides in the scriptorium: A Beginner's and an Intermediate Guide to Scripting.

How big is it?
Approx. 250 kb

Mod compatibility
This script can be used in combination with almost all other mods and any version of RTW. The only exceptions to this are mods with complicated scripts. In this situation it is still possible to use this script, but it is more complicated to implement. Many mods with complicated scripts include the multiple turns script already.

Usage instructions

This mod is a rtw script. This means that the script must be run every time you start a new game or load a saved game. This is done through the advisor in game (in campaign map mode) by doing the following:
Press the question mark in the top right hand corner. Press the Show me how button on the advisor.

Press escape so that the campaign menu appears.
Press the question mark (?) button in the top right hand corner of the menu. The advisor will appear.
Press the Show me how button on the advisor.

NB This must be done every time you load the game

Comments

This mod can be used in combination with any other mod. Mod developpers who wish to include this script in their mod are free to do so so long as they contact me and give credit in their mod release.

4 turns a year with more than one winter - final release

This mod is my oldest scripting project, started when the RTW scripting language was not fully understood. You can read the research we did by clicking the Scripting Research link below.

Older (redundant) versions of this script can be found here:

Version 1 (limited to one winter per turn)

I have to thank all those people who helped research the scripting language, and Jerome Grasdyke of CA for releasing the docudemon files and scripting notes.
