The timing for "Animal attack" has been changed to reflect the in-game updates. There is now just a single update every Cantr hour during which migration, reproduction and attack can occur.

I don't really know why it's necessary. I guess it's so I don't lose my tick file again.

If the ticks still run at the same times as they did before (minus the animal tick, of course), then these should be the times (eating was what I went off of)

Eating - 1:28
Starvation - 2:00
Projects - x:24
Land Travel - x:17
Sea Travel - x:13
Inactivity - 7:31
Tiredness - ???
Violence - ???

The web application has been updated to reflect the apparent new time settings in the new server.

Hey Joo, the time, at least for projects, seems to be at least 3 minutes behind. Meaning projects just finished, and it still says 3 minutes to go. Guess my 4 mins to spare on saving my character from starvation was a lot closer than even that!

Indeed, the time on my server seems to be 00:04:20 behind the time reported by timeanddate.com. I've added an adjustment, which should hold as long as the discrepancy remains constant. If it diverges again, I'll consider using another server to get the real time.

(If the "Current time" shown at the main web page is different from your computer's local time, it could be because your local time is wrong, or, indeed, because the time on my server is wrong - if it's the latter, please let me know).

Now the difference between serwer time, and my local time is like 5h. Server time is about 18:10, and my local time is 23:06.

Yeah mine is off by about 5 hours too, and my computer time isn't wrong.

That's odd. Is that still happening? If so, what browser, operating system and timezone are you using?

I've update this page to take into account the timezone offset of the server during British Summer Time... so it should be accurate now. If not, please tell me.


The page went offline just now. :cry:
