TIme going backwards?
« on: August 20, 2012, 08:03:24 pm »

So, I genned a world without megabeasts. It went through the useual "Age of three powers" Nonsense, then actually went forwards into the age of myth. What? I -have- modded my game extensively, sod eos this sound like an issue with duplicate raws or something?

Minotaurs/dragons reproduce. If they get enough babies, then it can go back to the Age Of Myth.

Necromancers are able to pull it back as well.  It happens frequently in my mod.

I've gone through worlds with more than 7 ages of myth/legends.

If time was going backwards, the years would be decreasing. What you're observing is nothing more than civilization regressing - great beasts or arcane powers have driven your world back into the dark ages.

P.S. If you don't get this note, let me know and I'll write you another.
It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.
It's amazing how they can make an entire floodgate out of the bones of 2 cats.

Ah, good to know. For a moment there I was worried that something bad had happened.

Here's a tip, though... Use Russian characters in your WPA5 passphrase. If your spontaneous AI is anything like my spontaneous AI (not as aggressive as yours, good conversation, but actually worse than me at chess*), it can't handle any character outside of the CODEPAGE 437 list.

*I hope. It could just be lulling me into a false sense of security.

What, more necromancers and dragons isn't bad enough for you?
