Flow of time, concept of “Turn”

In the virtual universe of eMusclor, time passes 30 times more quickly than in reality. In other words, when one day passes in reality, one month was passed in the game.
The transition are carried out at midnight (hour of the server, visible in top on the left of the screen of game), and you then have all the day to plan your actions.

eMusclor is thus an asynchronous “turn per turn” game : the player has 24h to “play his/her turn”, his schedules of connection not having any incidence ; following what the server “resolve the turn”, stage during which it calculates the results of the competitions, carries out backups and other operations.

This acceleration of time allows a more dynamic and more realistic game, than it is of the progression of your champions or the budget of your club. One year of game thus enables you to involve a bodybuilder its beginnings of junior (at 20 years) until the championships of veterans (more than 50 years), except if you decide meanwhile to return it or that you used it too much.
Contrary to much of games where the seniority has a prevalent importance in the classifications, involving the lassitude of old and a feeling of impotence of the beginners, the ageing of the champions (until a well deserved retirement) and other parameters dynamic (like glory and popularity) make it possible to offer a constant challenge.

Weather and impact of the climate

Each day/turn of game, a new month is installed on eMusclor with its climatic conditions.
For a sport room, the weather generally has little importance, but the state of the sky influences nevertheless the moral of sportsmen : those are enjoyed the sunny days than under a downpour of rain.
More important, the temperature influences directly the output, from where importance to have a room equipped with system(s) of air-conditioning. It is considered that the ideal temperature is of 20°C (68°F), and that the output drops by 2% for each celcius degree of variation. In full summer by a heat wave of 35°C (95°F), a badly ventilated room can thus make fall the performances of 30%.
