Holidays! What ones do you have?
Hey all,
So I'm in the long process of making my own save file, when I realised I hadn't even considered holidays. So, at that point I decided to sit down and work out what holidays etc I want in my game.
I think I've finally got to a point where I'm happy with my setup, but the process got me curious about what other people's attitudes/setups are in regards to in-game holidays? I tried searching for other posts but all I could find were threads about what holidays people were hoping to create before the pack was out.
Have you created your own holidays? Have you deleted any premade ones? How many do you have and how long are your seasons? Do you do the holiday every time? etc etc
I play with 28 day seasons, and wanted 3 holidays a season. I decided I want a Winterfest equivelent for each season which in my mind is the big holiday of each season. Other than that I created all my other holidays, choosing to name them 'Day of ____' depending on their topic. Many were inspired by irl holidays (Bonfire Night = Day of Fire and Day of Family was inspired by the Day of the Dead, etc).
I ended up creating a spreadsheet to help me organise everything and decide what I wanted. The first table is my holiday setup, the second table is all the traditions in game, the third table is a list of additional traditions I have in my game from mods.
