Date Format

Description
Specify the format for dates in the game.



Detailed Description
The following date formatting items can be specified:
  • Date part order can be DMY, MDY, or YMD.
  • Date part separator can be slash (/), period (.), dash (-), or space.
  • Month and day can be with or without a leading zero for values less than 10.

Game dates will often be year 2100 or later, therefore the year is always formatted with 4 digits.

Click Reset To Default to reset all settings to their default values. The default values correspond to the normal date format used by the game which is DMY, slash, with leading zeroes.

The date format can be changed while a game is in progress. The new date format will be applied immediately.

The following dates are formatted:
Date
Displayed by
Main game date
Game, Map Editor, Theme Editor
Past launch dates
ChirpX Launch Site
Next and past match dates
Football Stadium, Varsity Sports Arenas, Sports Venues (CCP)

This mod does not format the date/time displayed when loading or saving: games, maps, themes, assets, and scenarios.

Compatibility
This mod is compatible with the following mods. The main game date will be formatted when any of these mods are enabled.
This mod is compatible with the Enhanced Outside Connections View mod. The tooltip date on the graph will be formatted.

This mod is compatible with the More City Statistics mod. The tooltip date on the graph and the slider dates (when Real Time mod is enabled) will be formatted.

This mod is a replacement for and therefore is not compatible with the Date Reformatter mod.

This mod does not alter game save files in any way and can be safely disabled or unsubscribed at any time.

This mod does not alter the game mechanics or the game date in any way. This mod only changes how game dates are displayed.

This mod has been tested only on Windows but should work on Mac and Linux.

Does anyone know of a mod that removes the year from the date? Just the day and month displayed would be awesome.

who wouldve thought something as simple as the date being in a different format would annoy me so much lol

I thank you on the behalf of us weirdos in America using yet another weird system compared to everyone else

@kani This mod changes only the date format. To change the date, see the Date Changer mod.

are you able to change the year of the game

@franzeusq No. This mod does not do anything with stats. I don't know of a mod that lets you reset the game's stats. But see my More City Statistics mod.

Is it possible to reset all stats with this mod?
