Pregnancy length

[saris]

Hi, 

 

I'm trying to make the pregnancy length shorter, but I don't know it doesn't seem to be doing much. Here is what I have...

 

60 * 24 * 1 ;Early Follicular Phase (Menstruation) [minutes]

60 * 24 * 3 ;Late Follicular Phase [minutes]

60 * 24 * 4 ;Ovulation Phase [minutes]

60 * 24 * 7 ;Luteal Phase [minutes]

 

60 * 24 * 1 ;Pregnant (1st Trimester) [minutes]

60 * 24 * 2 ;Pregnant (2nd Trimester) [minutes]

60 * 24 * 3 ;Pregnant (3rd Trimester) [minutes]

60 * 24 * 7 ;Postpartum Phase [minutes]  *Set the LENGTH of the INTERVAL here (not the offset from last menstruation)

 

So if I got this right 60 * 24 = 1 oblivion day right? So 60 * 24 * 1 should mean -- 1 Day and 60 * 24 * 3 -- would mean 3 oblivion days, yeah?

 

So in total the pregnancy should last 6 days right? 

 

 

I'm waiting a lot more than 6 days. 

 

Does the Luteal phase need to complete whether or not the character is Pregnant? Could that be why it feels like 13-14 days instead of the six I want?

 

Thanks.

Just by looking at the numbers, potentially a pregnancy would last 17 days if you inseminate on the first day of ovulation phase. And yes the phases run their complete cycle regardless of pregnancy.

Thank you for the reply. 

 

Now it makes a little more sense, I've reduced the last to 1 day along with post partum.

I went over some of this in more detail the other day in the thread http://www.loverslab.com/topic/17387-how-to-make-pregnancy-faster/ You might want to look that over. But in short that .ini won't work, that's why you're waiting so long. With the exception of the postpartum phase which is just the raw length the rest of the times are cumulative, meaning they start where the last one ended. You can't go from day 7 (Luteal) then try jumping back to day 1, the ini is telling the game that day 1 is both Early Follicular Phase and first phase of pregnancy. The latter, Pregnant (1st Trimester), needs to start on day 8 or after and the rest needs to follow that.
