Turn

A turn is the main time division used by the game engine to organize and process actions performed by creatures, objects, fields, etc.

• A turn in 0.D (Danny) always lasts six seconds. Or, in other words, ten turns are equal to one minute.
• In 0.E (Ellison) turn lasts one second. This means one minute is 60 turns.
• Transition from 6 second turns in 0.D (Danny) to 1 second turns in 0.E (Ellison) is mostly seen in faster movement per tile. Other turn based mechanic either self-adjusted or were manualy adjusted in the development process.

The amount of actions a creature (including the player's character) can perform in a turn is based on the available move points for that creature in that turn.
