Could someone better explain time?

Postby Vessol » Tue Nov 10, 2009 4:21 am

Have to say, for however long I've been playing, I just can't seem to get the times down.

"There are 20 days in a year, 8 hours in a day, 36 minutes in an hour and 60 seconds in a minute. " Just doesn't explain it fully.

Looking at it, is it 3RL hours per IG hour, 36 minutes in a IG hour? 20 RL days to a year? It's just confusing and seemingly random, sorry for the confusion.

Yea, it's 3 RL hours per in game hour. The in game hours are divided by 36 "minutes" (X.00-X.35). So that's 5 RL minutes to one IG minute, and 20 RL days to a year.

180 mins in three hrs divided by 36 IG mins equals 5 RL Mins for one Cantr min
24 hr in one day divided by 8 IG hrs equals 3 RL hrs for one cantr hour
One year is 20 days RL time and IG time.

That just made everything so much more confusing... :)

A Cantr year equals 20 RL days.
A Cantr day equals a RL day
A Cantr day is divided in 8 hours, so each Cantr hour is 3 RL hours.
A Cantr hour has 36 minutes, which make each Cantr minute 5 RL minutes long.
A Cantr minute has 60 seconds, so a Cantr second is 5 RL seconds long.
