Current date in game? - Malious - 03-02-2013
now i may have just completely derped out on this and missed it somewhere but what is the current year in the mod, is it 819? ive looked around some and havent been able to find what the concrete as to the moment year is and i ask so that i can go ahead and write up my individual bio for the forums lol. any help would be much appreciated
RE: Current date in game? - Narcotic - 03-02-2013
Since 2013 I'm RP'ing the year as 820 AS. Anyhting else would screw up my stories, because I've already used 819 in 2012 when .86 was released.

820 it is.

I'd say practically everyone considers it 820 A.S., really. I suppose you could argue time doesn't pass until a new mod version is released to "officialize" the change of date, but then again.. Time passes.

Thats the main issue I have. The year changes per mod varient, but we still use the same dates as IRL. You can't really have it both ways, unless you want to claim that the people of Sirius decide to randomly change what the year is when they feel like it.

So, distance is exactly 1017 years from now?

Space, gentlemen, time is irrelevant.

Not including time in cryosleep, there would have been about 1000 years of human activity from our present to Disco's present.
We use "After Settlement" for a reason, and it is currently 820 AS.
