How it works
Elders are given a base of 10 days to live, the game adds a random number 1-10, then adds or subtracts days depending on the aspiration level. Unmodded elders can live 9-30 days, provided the happiest elder rolls the highest number and vice versa. This mod lowers the pool of possible base days by 35%, making it 7-13 instead of 10-20, and does the same to the aspiration bonus/penalty days.
Default Short - Version: 00
Human and plant elder min/max is shortened by 35%. The human elder lifespan is 4-20 days. The plant elder lifespan is 6-23 days.
Bonus/penalty days
Platinum: +7 originally +10
Gold: +5 originally +7
Green: +2 originally +3
Middle or upper red: 0 unchanged
Red: -3 originally -2
---
Super Short - Version: 01
Human and plant elder min/max is shortened by 45%. Additionally, platinum and gold aspiration bonuses are shortened by 55%, and green aspiration does not give a bonus. The human elder lifespan is 3-16 days. The plant elder lifespan is 5-19.
Bonus/penalty days
Platinum: +5
Gold: +3
Green: 0
Middle or upper red: 0
Red: -3
