Turn limit: Hardcoded or moddable?

Does anyone know if the question in the title has been answered? (apologies in advance if this is well-known - I couldn't find anything in the forum).

Thanks.

moddable, look for threads discussing game speed especially the epic game, they show the file with the turn limit stuff in it. Each game type epic,normal fast has a different turn limit that you can change and modify by breakdown of number of years per turn per game phase.

I did see the (nice) thread on changing speeds and years per turn. My question (maybe not explained well enough) is:

Regardless of the number of years per turn, is there a hard limit to the number of turns before the game ends? IE - are there only 600 (or whatever) turns in the game not matter how many years pass?

no the turn limit is when the sum of all the turns in the game file is reached. At that point if you have "time victory" on the game ends, if you don't have time victory on the game just continues as normal afaik.

The devs stated there is no hard coded turn limit and they have tested out to 2200. Obviously they didn't see any need to test much further than the standard "time victory" parameters.

Great, thanks for the heads up!

BTW, That was the YEAR 2200, not turn 2200 (as I read it).
