Moon Cycle

The Moon Cycle is a gameplay mechanic which controls the appearance of Werepigs and Woodie's transformation. Werepigs are normal Pigs who are caught outdoors during a full moon, and Woodie turns into a Werebeaver whenever there's a full moon (or he chops too many trees).

The complete Moon Cycle lasts for 16 days and then repeats. Each phase of the Moon lasts for two nights.

Trivia

 * By default, it takes 560 days for the beginning of the Moon Cycle to re-align with the first day of the starting season.
 * When both seasons are set to long, 12 complete moon cycles will occur in 4 seasons time (similar to a standard calendar year).
