Turns Structure Request

[Kramsib]

What is Civ IV's turn Structure? Anybody knows?

Is it the same as in Civ III:



25 turns of 50 years
25 " 40 "
40 " 25 "
50 " 20 "
100 " 10 "
100 " 5 "
100 " 2 "
100 " 1 "



or is it different?

Where can I find the turn structure of Civ IV?

Thank You.

It's different depending on the speed - it's been posted on this forum before:

1850 AD - 1950 AD 2 years per turn. 50 turns
1950 AD - 2050 AD 1 year per turn. 100 turns

Total = 430 turns

Yeah, every patch has increased the # of turns in a game so my above list is a little off. Now it is:

On normal speed:
4000 BC - 1000 BC 40 years per turn. 75 turns
1000 BC - 500 AD 25 years per turn. 60 turns
500 AD - 1000 AD 20 years per turn. 25 turns
1000 AD - 1500 AD 10 years per turn. 50 turns
1500 AD - 1800 AD 5 years per turn. 60 turns
1800 AD - 1920 AD 2 years per turn. 60 turns
1920 AD - 2050 AD 1 year per turn. 130 turns

Total = 460 turns

Epic, Marathon and quick all use different scales, quick has 320 total turns, epic has 660 and marathon has a staggering 1200 turns. You can mod this at any time by going into your civ directory and going into Assets/XML/Gameinfo. File you are looking for is Civ4Gamespeedinfo.xml open it up with notepad or simpletext or whatever and you can see all the modifiers for all the game speeds and the turn structures. I don't think messing with that file will harm anything, I have a feeling that adding in more turns messed with my old game replays but thats nothing serious.
