Add Difffrent Nammeing options for years

New Feature Addition · Chronicles · Created by KyberFox

In non earth centered worlds or worlds without a common era all in universe dates would be centered around their own important events as it stands i see no way to add different naming schemes for years and would like a way to rename C.E or B.C.E to something else say A.E and B.E

   

this would allow users to center their year naming scheme on what would be used in universe

   

this has few other uses but is a relatively simple feature

Hi! This is already possible:  
  1. Go to the world settings
  2. Go to the "Date & Time" tab
  3. Use the "era abbreviation" fields there

    Over all, the calendar features could be expanded to a more flexible view upon time and how time is measured.

    you can already do that dawg, do what DMFW said. The gear icon on the sidebar, then the 2 gears, then "date and time". My eras are B.D. and P.E.

    There is already some support for this which you might not be aware of. For each world, if you click on settings and then "Date and Time", you can define an Era name and an Era abbreviation, as well as setting a current date within your world. In addition to this, when creating timelines, you can specify different prefixes for each era, although you may need to manually type the display date on a timeline if it doesn't conform to the standard you defined in the world setting.
