I just got to my first war in a new game, and found that the new absolute time limit is brutally short and makes the game unplayable from my point of view. Please create an option to turn it off.

I don't actually see in the changelog where this change was made. In the last version I played, which was not that long after release, battles went to completion. Now they are ending in the middle, even with enemy ships in sight.
I assume someone thought the old battles were too long (I didn't) but this is pretty crazy. I'm putting the game down until/unless I can find a fix for it.
How about giving the player an option to end the battle after the time limit (and only if enemy forces are not in sight) instead of the battle just stopping?

Alright, so I figured out that if I autosave right at the beginning of every battle, force-quit, edit the autosave to change Length=500 TimeOutLimit=180 to
Length=5000 TimeOutLimit=1800 and then reload, it should work.
But really there should be a game setting for that.

Is this something new with the 1.00.49 beta?

Is this something new with the 1.00.49 beta? No, 1.00.46. But I last played about 2 years ago.

That doesn't sound right - the time out is for when you haven't encountered the enemy. I've never had it time out whilst in contact with the enemy.

I only had this issue in the first few battles I played in the 1890s, as it turns out. I've switched to not editing the save to extend time, and it is working fine in the 1900s-1920s.
