more turns per year

**InsanePerson42** · October 22, 2010, 03:05 AM

is there a tool somewhere that will allow me to add more turns in a year? I'v just started playing stainless steel 6.1 and its great in every way except that there is only 1 turn per year.

GED's 12 turns per year with proper aging

thanks. This works great. Unfortunately now I need a tool to slow down the construction of buildings to match the slower passage of time

No problem and you can slow down the time for building construction from the EDB aka export_descr_buildings.txt file.

Look for this in it where 2 is number of turns to build for example:-

Code:

construction  2

Well I'm finally getting back to this. I've been immersed in 18th, 19th, and 20th century combat for a while. But I'm now returning to medieval warfare. Unfortunately I can't seem to find the export_descr_buildings.txt file. I did a general search for it on my computer and I only found the RTW equivalent, but nothing for M2TW.

data\world\maps\campaign\imperial_campaign.

ok I looked in data\world\maps\campaign\imperial_campaign and I couldn't find export_descr_buildings.txt. It just doesn't seem to exist for some reason

My fault. I thought you were looking for the descr_strat.txt for changing turns per year.

EDB (export_decsr_buildings.txt) is in the data folder but you have to unpack the game to get to it.

that worked, thanks. +rep to both irishron and Ishan

**irishron** · April 02, 2011, 07:46 AM

You're welcome.

one last thing that has to do with reseting things to account for the slower passage of time. Now that I have the game moving at a pace of 12 turns per year the pope has been calling crusades about every 2 or 3 years. I need to increase the amount of time between crusades. How do I increase the amount of time that needs to pass before another crusade can be called?

**irishron** · April 12, 2011, 08:56 AM

I'm not sure. Check the descr_missions.txt. I've had him do that with two turns per year. Part of it maybe how much the Catholic factions are at war with each other.

**Ishan** · April 12, 2011, 06:16 PM

descr_campaign_db.xml if the file you want and increase these values.

Code:

<crusade_called_start_turn float="20"/>
<jihad_called_start_turn float="20"/>

I think that's the amount of turns to wait before allowing crusades/jihads to be called. It only works once at the start of the campaign. I have no idea how to change the turns between crusades (if there are any) and I think it could be hardcoded.
