Time frame

[FactionHeir]

1. Find descr_strat.txt and add a ; before show_date_as_turns
2. You can change the timescale to slow the year progression although this will make things somewhat less historic (but most people don't mind that anyway). A detailed walkthrough on that is in my signature - link 1.

Thank you Faction Heir

another request: i'm a newbie so do you think that is good to set the time frame to 1? Or is better to 0.5?

[FactionHeir]

Its really down to personal choice.
Your generals are hardcoded to age 0.5 years a turn, so at 0.5 timescale, they age synchronously.
In the end, it doesn't actually matter which timescale you use, as you can scale the start/end year as well if you like.
Its more of a personal choice thing really. Personally, I prefer 1.0 for no obvious reasons.

one other thing to bear in mind is that if you mod the time frame then the events (notably, gunpowder, mongols, timurids & america) take longer to arrive. so if these matter to you, you need to mod them too.

Thank you very much!

This is all covered in the tutorial I linked you to, so when you change the frame, you need to change all those factors as well (unless you never want to get to that)
