The time limit affects the game dynamics by altering the ratio of play time vs. maintenance events.
| Short time limit | Long time limit |
|---|---|
| Fortress factories produce more frequently (better ROI) | Fortress factories produce less frequently (ROI not as good) |
| Wandering fortresses change locations more frequently. |
More time to locate a wandering fortress (good for the looker, not good for the hider). |
| Sacre base rent more substantial (camping more frequently). | More time to salvage items, offsetting the cost of rent. |
| Bank interest occurs more frequently (more useful) | Bank interest is less frequent (less significant compared to salvaging equipment) |
