Does anyone know the exact length of a day in game?

After 3.5 years and every opportunity to figure this out on my own, I still don’t know for sure. Is it 30 minutes?

I have a lot of little ideas for immersive details in upcoming builds, like my stock indices, that would be more fun to track the amount of days/months/years that have passed in game rather than irl. Player created lore would be a lot more interesting with this expanded time frame.

Thanks.

No I don’t know.
At times i feel like its always day or always night.
When i have to check colors during the day or night its always the opposite :wink:.
That said isn’t it more like 24 (or 48) minutes? Haven’t timed it myself but most games i played usually did equal 1hour in game to 1 (2) minutes irl.

I would have to agree. At times on alder it seems like it is nighttime a lot more then daytime while I’m building. I guess it’s because of it being winter on the USE server and the days are shorter…:man_shrugging:?

Thanks!! I always liked the idea of the 24 minute style, had another game with the same timing.

No, it’s because building in the dark is annoying so you notice it more.

If you were setting up a complex gleam/lighting arrangement and you actually wanted it to be dark, you would perceive it to be day all the time.
