clock-twoTime Management

Time in the SIMULACRA flows in a carefully managed way to create realistic daily and weekly patterns.

Day and Night Cycle

The simulation maintains a dynamic day/night cycle that:

  • Influences citizen energy levels and activity choices

  • Creates natural activity patterns throughout the day

  • Affects the availability of certain locations and activities

  • Guides social interaction patterns

Time Scaling

The system implements flexible time scaling that:

  • Allows for observation of both immediate and long-term patterns

  • Maintains consistent causality in all town systems

  • Preserves realistic activity durations

  • Enables meaningful development of relationships and patterns
