Time skip & the tick engine

⏰ Time in ManageFC only moves when you tell it to. The tick engine accepts a target date (up to 365 days into the future per tick) and runs every periodic job between sim_date and the target, in order, before returning control. This means a +30 day skip will simulate every fixture on the calendar, every training session, every injury recovery, every transfer rumour, every board confidence drift, every press conference and every wage payment for those 30 days — and then update your sim_date and refresh the dashboard.

Daily jobs include: aging (age_months ticks up, attributes drift), condition recovery (rested players regain fatigue), training application, mentoring increments, morale decay/recovery, finance pulse, injury recovery, AI tactics rebuild, news feed generation and rumour mill. Weekly jobs (Monday 06:30 UTC) include: crisis generation (intentionally rare — was daily, now ~86% less frequent), board confidence drift, staff loyalty adjustments and youth scouting reports. Monthly jobs include: youth intake (new academy players arrive once per month), sponsorship reviews and stadium pricing reviews.

Using time-skip well

Press +1 Day for a quick check — useful right after setting tactics, to see the next morning report.

Press +3 Days when nothing urgent is pending — the engine will roll through fixtures, training and the weekly checks.

The engine itself accepts a target date up to 365 days ahead; the interface currently exposes +1 and +3 day steps, with longer skips under final tuning.

You can cancel a running tick from the topbar if you change your mind — partial progress is committed safely.

💡Big skips are heavier on the server. If a tick is taking unusually long, leave the tab open — the worker is processing, not stuck. You will get an inbox message when it completes.
