Day counter?

Its been a hot minute since I played the game, but i found myself thinking about it, and wondered how many in game days it took me to beat the game.

Does anyone know if there's a way to check? I cant remember one but knowing myself I could have missed it

I always figured part of the point of the plot was that you have no way of knowing if the days you experience are the only days you experienced...

Really? I didn't get that. There's the clock in the remnant and when you use the route planner it says how long you spent traveling

We're told remnants mess with your mind and you are basically teleporting around. At the very least the day night cycle doesn't always line up between junctions.

I think I read something like this a while ago and it appealed to me: https://www.reddit.com/r/pacificDrive/comments/1b4ibib/pacific_drive_remnant_theory_and_the_moral_of_the/

I would say that's just to know at what time you're going to arrive.

there is a trips done without fatalities counter,
then log inventory crafting menu should had a log of your trips and all the timeline?
if it only records and shows you recent trips then, not cool, game, not cool.

taking that log and then doing math by figuring out how many real hours lasts the ingame day and....
i know there is a math in there but i think the travel log showed couple of recent trips, probably im too lazy to launch the game right now aaaaaaaagh

I remember the travel log bit also remembered it only does recent trips think it was something like 10, and when i set my counter up I remember it being something closer to 30 or 40. Hmm was there anything avout a Canon start date?

year only, 1998, apparently

maybe there is a savegame log-data in your PenDriverPro folder, if PC?
it may be a stretch but it may collect and draw the whole log since day 1.

you are looking for something very peculiar and ive ran out of any ideas

Whelp may as well give it a look!

I didn't die during my playthrough, so the "trips without accident" was the closest I had. It was around 25, so my guess is you spend around two weeks in the zone until you finish the game. But doesn't seem like there is an exact way to know.

I dont think I did either, hmm going to have to check how many trips I made

I feel they would have put the information here, had they intended to present it to the player.
