    If it was possible then it would be descr_strat.txt - so far the smallest (shortest) period per turn is 6 months. You will have to experiment with the number for the 'timescale' entry. Let us know if you found a way.

    I thought broken crescent went at 4 months per turn

    Edit: I went into my descr_strat file and checked and it's at 0.5 anyways i'll assume that since there are 52 weeks in a year and 1.0 divided by 52 is about 0.0192,307,692,307,692,307,692,307,692,307 etc. of course in the likely event that the game stops reading the number after the first couple decimal places 0.02(50 weeks in a year) will be close enough to what you want I think of course the only way to test is set it up like this and go into the game 52 turns and see if the year changes

    but I set it to this(It goes on like that for a few dozen lines which was unnecessary but I was bored)
    And that made it go at 3 turns per year(4 months/turn)
    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
    timescale

    It is an idea, but what was the reasoning behind it? A mod that takes place over a limited\short period?

    I have an idea on how to test if my fix works just set the start date 1 year before the finish date and see how many turns remain with my time scale put in

    Well i found the way to make a lot of turns in 4 years but there still winter and summer with the turns.So even if i make a lot of turns in one year still stays:summer,winter,summer,winter...and so on.Well i would live it like that if someone finds a way to make spring,summer,otom and winter let me know.(srry for the English am from PR)

    Scripting is the only way. And if I remember the 4tpy mod from RTW correctly than it is one hell of a long script.

    yeah adding in all 4 seasons is harder especially if you want it to be done for multiple turns(weeks) in a row without changing and it may be better just to remove winter then add 2 seasons and see if there even is a way to make the game not alternate between them every week
