World Date Display

What functionality is missing? What is unsatisfying with the current situation?

  The world date used to display right there on the screen. I miss it horribly. There are some other suggestions that include this one, but this one is meant to be very, very small and limited: bring back the display of the world date in a way it is easily and constantly accessible.  

How does this feature request address the current situation?

  See above.  

What are other uses for this feature request?

  None. Small, limited, direct functionality.

The Team's Response

Thanks for the suggestion! We're sorry you miss it so much :c But worry not, for the world date will be coming back in a much stronger form as part of the campaign manager update.

    I would like this feature, especially if it had a direct link to an attached calendar for the world.

    Just voting to say I'd like it to be an optional display feature if it is returned. Personally, I don't miss it, as my world is a bit all over the place. That's why I appreciate the timelines and chronicles that help me organize events. The world itself doesn't have a set date for me and it would be confusing to display a date without context. I didn't miss the feature. In fact, I was quite pleased at its removal. Still, I understand why others may find it functional. Thanks and God bless!

    It got taken away the moment I found out it existed and yet I already miss it.

    I miss this feature! Being able to quickly adjust the date, especially for the GM Screen and when working on novels was so helpful. Please bring this back!

    I also enjoyed the date tracking functionality, and it's good to keep my world's WA page up to date with where we're at in the campaign.

    as the maintainer of a multi campaign universe, time tracking is critical to me. I would use all my anvil coins on this, if I could

    allowing you to display your entire calendar with a set date on the world's home page could also be pretty useful
