About how much time does it take to play one year? At ~30 FPS?

I don't know exactly, but it's a couple hours for me. As a wild guess, I'd say five.

Based on my current ~35fps fort I believe it would be closer to 1-2 hours w/o pausing.

Oh man. 1-2 hours? Between pausing and insane framerate, I haven't changed years in like a week.

Though I'm surprised there isn't a "X number of frames = X days / years" thing on the wiki (or ANYTHING about time, really).

At default 100fps, a year takes an hour or so for me. But its hard to say really because of pausing, change in framerate, etc.

Without pausing, each month is about half an hour (at around 20-25fps), so a year would be dix hours.
