Modifying time

[TOWNECPA]

Is there a way to alter the start year and rate that time passes. For instance, if one were setting up a musket, cavalry and cannon scenario, could one have the game begin in the year 1701, and increment in one-year increments, with an end date of 1815 (for instance)?

I have already figured out the changes that I want to the rules.txt file.

Thanks in advance if anyone knows how to do this.

You would probably get better answers in the Scenario Creation forum (thread moved).

Short answer, yes, I believe all that can be done. The details of doing so, someone else would have to give that.

Nice thread.

err.... mabye ask an expert. that might help.
aslo, mabye the data might be in some sort of file you could edit like RULES.txt

Those settings can be found in the Cheat menu:
Cheat menu > Scenario Parameters (Ctrl+Shift+P)

I found a really good guide the other day that could help you but i cant remember the link.

As Mercator said you go to cheat mode and into the Scenario Parameters. That the easiest and most practical way of changing it. I'm not aware it can be done in the rules can it?
