Description
This mod allows you to fully customise the research cost of technologies and civics under the Advanced Options when starting a game. This lets you advance through the technology and civic tree slower so you can get more of an experience of every era.

Options
You can hover over the options in-game for more information, here is a quick summary below.
  • Base Tech Cost - Multiplies the cost of technologies by the chosen amount ranging from x0.25 (quick) to x50 (slow)
  • Base Civic Cost - Multiplies the cost of civics by the chosen amount ranging from x0.25 (quick) to x50 (slow)
  • Tech Scaling Cost - Multiple settings to apply an increase to the cost of a technology based on its era.
  • Civic Scaling Cost - Multiple settings to apply an increase to the cost of a civic based on its era.
  • Eureka Amount - The percentage of Science gained when earning a boost towards a technology ranging from 5% to 100%, can also be set to 50% of the original game's technology cost.
  • Inspiration Amount - The percentage of Culture gained when earning a boost towards a civic ranging from 5% to 100%, can also be set to 50% of the original game's civic cost.
  • Great Person Scaling - The points required to earn a Great Person can be increased depending on the base and scaling cost or by a flat multiplier.
  • World Era Scaling - The game eras introduced by Rise & Fall can have their turn lengths increased depending on the base and scaling cost or by a flat multiplier.
  • Era Score Scaling - The amount of era score needed to achieve a normal age and a golden age can be increased depending on the base and scaling cost or by a flat multiplier.
  • Climate Change Scaling - With Gathering Storm, the amount of CO2 emissions needed to cause the temperature to rise can be increased depending on the base and scaling cost or by a flat multiplier.

Why slow down the research trees?
Take your Time is made for people who like playing through eras much slower but keeping the rest of the game mechanics at the original speed. This means that more buildings can be produced in each city, and can also allow for more meaningful wars on a larger scale.

This is invaluable when playing with hundreds of mods which all have buildings, units and bonuses that give the player a large amount of yields.

Take your Time Legacy
Take your Time Ultimate renders the legacy editions of Take your Time obsolete.
Ultimate also fixes many bugs that crept up over the years such as Buttress and techs and civics from the future era not receiving a cost increase.

Huge thanks to other mod creators that carried the torch and kept the 'Take your Time' name and similar renditions alive while I refused to update my mods. Similar to Gedemon, I think Civ 6's modding support has been handled poorly and at the time I wanted to focus on creating things for other games.

Support
I will try and support this version of Take your Time as best as I can, if you see a bug please post it in the comments and give more details than "not working kinda bad".

The mod should support the game with or without any expansion packs.

Future Plans
  • Different yields like increased production costs, citizen food cost, etc.
  • Calendar slowing down based on options selected.

I honestly don't understand how is it possible to war on standart speed or faster. Even on marathon I'd still like to have more time before my units need to be upgraded again. Thanks for the mod

Honestly, this may be THE most essential Civ 6 mod.
Because Firaxis never seemed to care to balance out tech or civic progression much as they added content and the pacing became just awful the more DLC they put out.

And the modularity on this is wonderful. Excellent work all around!

Thank you, this is the mod I was looking for in Civ 5 also. Regular building speed, but slower research, because it often happens that once you research and build a few units - they become obsolete when new technology is unlocked in 6 turns

only first tech/civic is longer, after that goes back to normal

I guess it does drag it out some by definition

This heavily nerfs science victory, no?

Apart from the broken era score, it still remains a great mod! Wish I could pay this man to fix the era score though

I'm no coder and no modder, but I've had a look through and I wonder if it could be made to work if the era scalings were expanded to include the additional era

@Rinel - I don't think so. I got a crash at startup. I think it's the obvious thing that post-classic is not included in this mod
