(Although I don't understand why this doesn't happen more often, if ANY event at all can cause the turn to be cut short)
Thanks a lot, the event logged helped; all is well.

Hit Ctrl-F3 and bring up the Event Log. Increment time and see if there is any messages in there.

Also, selecting it does not seem to have any impact on the behavior, i. e. the time increments by 2 hours when I click the 5-day increment button, with sub-pulse set to "Automatic. "

« on: January 25, 2011, 10:02:56 PM »I don't understand how that is meant to help; I now get warning messages saying that there will be a huge number of sub-pulses in the increment (which I never got before this happened) and the time still barely advances.
I don't think these are the normal interruptions caused by activities of NPRs, because it's happening consistently and it only started when I accidentally clicked the 1-day button under sub-pulse length.

« on: January 25, 2011, 09:42:46 PM »I accidentally clicked on of the sub-pulse length buttons on the system map screen, and now I cannot increment by more than a day at a time; e. g. i click the 30 days button, and time goes forward by only a day.
I don't see any way to undo what I did; even selecting "automatic" doesn't seem to help.
What do I do?
