In-Game "Clock"

[slagginwaggin]

One thing I wish Paradox games had, was an in-game tool to create reminders at certain times. For example, if I start lend-leasing guns to my ally Mexico on July 6th, 1940, I want to be able to set an in-game reminder at July 6th, 1941 with a custom title and information.

It would go like this.

Right-click on day/month/year clock.

Choose "Create a reminder" from the drop-down menu.

Select the date.

Select a title.

(Optional) Add extra notes.

Would this not be useful? And (I hate to say this) wouldn't it be easy to program it?

This is a great idea and would be helpful for any grand strategy game. I am surprised this has not been implemented already.

There are certainly times in a number of PDS games across the years when I would have found such a tool quite useful.

Even more so in Stellaris!

I’d love to be able to set timed Reminders to myself, consisting of three elememts:

• Remind me once, X days, or Y/Y.5 years, from now...
• ... by showing me this tab/pane of this particular window...
• ... accompanied by this_particular_short_text_string.

There are mods called "Custom Timer" for CK2 and and a variant for EU4
CK2 variant: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1400460978
EU4 variant: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1398495788
which do something quite close to it.

Great idea!

Hope someone comes out with a timer for
