Mod Summary:
- Experience a multi-year/season playthrough without having to put in hundreds of hours or have incredibly short days to do so.
- Always have something to prepare for eg. cold and scarce winters, hot and dry summers.
- This mod allows the player (or host of a world) to set the max amount of days in a month. Min 1 to Max 15.
- Based on the value set, the mod will dynamically simulate a shorter in-game month.
- Example: 10-day months create a 2 day skip. At every end of the day, 2 days will be skipped. See time-lapse video and pay attention to clock which simulates roughly 7 day months

Time-lapse of Seasons:


How does this affect water/electric shut-off, farming, erosion, days survived, etc.?
- Time-based sandbox settings (zombie/loot respawns included) will only progress when time progresses normally through gameplay and or sleeping (also sped-up time in singleplayer).
- Example: Lets say your world starts on 7/9/1993 (MM/DD/YYYY) and you set water/electric to shut-off on day 10.
- If you set this mod with 10-day months. Your water/electricity will NOT shut-off on 7/19/1993.
- Instead it will shut-off around 8/10/1993, almost a month later because you've only played 10 in-game days but simulated a month of time passing.
Setting info and recommendations:
- After enabling the mod, the setting can be found within the sandbox settings under "Surviving Through Seasons" (Default 10-day months.).
- If playing with 10-day (or less) months, set vanilla hours per day to 2+ so you have more time per day for tasks.
- Generally, players may want to increase farming speeds and yields if playing with 10-day (or less) months.
Compatibility:
- Tested w/ B41, can be added/removed from an existing save. (Likely works w/ B40).
- Multiplayer and dedicated server compatible.
- Shouldn't conflict with any other mods.
Future plans:
- Additional settings to allow specific seasons or quarters of the year to be longer (such as winter).
- If possible, develop settings to automatically scale farming speeds, erosion etc.
Known issues:
- Anything above 15 doesn't scale properly, more logic will need to be added. Currently max days per month is 15.
