PA time
As the clocks changed on sunday in the UK the time for estimated production etc is one hour out. Is there already a way to change this if not could we have a timezone option in preferences to bring it more in line?

Re: PA time
PA does not use British time. It uses UCT, which does not do DST. Further, the date on which DST begins or ends varies widely, and in many parts of the world the practice does not exist at all. There is therefore no correct way for PA to handle it, just a bunch of different incorrect ways.

A setting could be introduced to allow you to set the timezone manually, but then PA time would no longer be universal, making it a little harder to coordinate attacks and defense.

Considering it's been this way for almost 15 years (dear god...), I wouldn't touch it.

Re: PA time
But with def and att don't we all do it by LT eta etc.. so I think having a time zone change option would allow you to plan production construction a little better?

Re: PA time
You can do that by tick too, though. *shrug*
