Time is relative

Tired of building your first graveyard 10 years into the game? Feeling unsettled by 9 year olds getting pregnant? Struggle no more, Karps Realistic Aging is here!

The maximum life expectancy is now 240 which should translate into 80 ingame years.
Children become students at age 15 (after 5 years) and grow adult at 39 (13 years). Schooling time is increased accordingly as well.

The basic setting is a 3 headed starting family, since all villagers age needs to be adjusted on world generation as well to avoid having only children as settlers.
This means the "no houses" scenario DOES NOT WORK. Feel free to add/remove peasants in Older_Settlers.lua as you like instead. Make sure to backup your edited .lua files in case of an (unlikely) mod update.

You can see this mod as a framework to easily change age related values and starting conditions to your liking. It is complete, very compatible with other mods and won't require any further updates. Please feel free to add and ask me anything, if you need help in customizing this mod to your liking!

When I made this mod, nobody knew how to slow aging of villagers. So I did the next best thing and multiplied all age related values by roughly 3, since villagers have their birthday about every 1.3 seasons. To add to my immersion, children also grow up a little slower. Since my wife then asked for it, I uploaded the mod to the workshop.

Now there is also another mod available on the steam workshop with a more sophisticated and complex solution, which you can find at this link: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1942633452&searchtext=forsaken+village
If you're not interested in creating your own starting scenario or don't want high age numbers, I recommend you using this one, though I did not test it myself yet.

Thanks to you, your peasants might actually live the long, happy lifes they deserve, unless they somehow manage to die in a tragic mine accident.

Inspired by the Banished Mod "One year is one year"
