Customization Request: Longer Full Day (Day/Night/Dusk)
Currently there's an option for long day, or long dusk, or long night.
But setting any of these shortens the length of the other two.

I would like the option for Long All. Which would make the day maybe twice as long;
32 units instead of 16.

Currently there's a similar option for summer and winter; long summer, short summer, long winter, long both, etc.

I just think it would make the game more epic-feeling for those of us that want that.
Having really long days, then really long nights, long summers and long winters, etc.

Long is 75% right?
so 75 % and 75% would = 150?

I'm not sure what the days are measured in. I was counting the slices on the clock, there are sixteen total. So 32 would be double that.

Right now if you choose long day, or long night, or long dusk; nomatter which the length
is always 16.

I too would love to see this as an option. I plan what to do for that segment of the day, start it, and the time of day changes. Even more annoying, night gives time to plan but not really start anything.

Proportionally longer everything would give the game a nice pace without unbalancing things too much. An extended night time that requires more resources for fire and longer exposure to night time hazards would balance having more relatively safe time during the day for exploration and resource gathering.

I really want this to be an option. The short day/night cycle is really my ownly gripe with this game. Exploring feels too punishable and theres just such a rush for progression that I cant really play at my own pace.

At least make a mod that does this...

Bump - Is there any update on this? I just got into this game and this is the one thing that bothers me the most.

/FULL SUPPORT.

I'd really like to have double the length of time without shortening other segments.

I want longer night, but not to long. 25% night, 25% dusk, 25% dawn(its a mod, and 25% day(or 50% w/out dusk.
