Dates before 1750
Posted: Fri May 09, 2008 1:17 pm
A while back I was trying to create a scenario in the 1600's [Pequot War] but have encountered an 'opportunity' [aka "problem"
] with dates.
It appears that dates before 1750 are treated as 'negative years and months'. I see negative turns remaining, and even more interesting the months follow each other in reverse! Game start in March, the next turn indicates February!
I tried changing the TurnsFormat.opt year, but still happened.
Is there an 'easy fix' or am I way out of bounds.
...or nutz?
