Request: How to order my calendar?

[JohnnFour]

In my Basilica campaign, the empire formed 1500 years ago, collapsed 157 years ago. It became a standard to restart the years after the Battle of Nogrod, where the Empire lost its final battle.

Can anyone think of a way to get my BC and AD style years in order here, from left to right:



I guess I could give each year an alpha code that would sort in the order I want. BC for Before Collapse and SC for Since Collapse. But that feels a bit like an arbitrary constraint.

It looks like numbers are given the highest sort order, so I could not use punctuation to force my preferred sort, like !1500 Empire's Foundation and 000 Battle of Nogrod.

Start your calendar with Empire Year Zero being the furthest back - and then all alter entries are higher numbers.
EY0 Empire's Formation
EY1500 Battle of Nogrod (NY0)
EY1651 Civil War (NY151)
EY1655 War of Scarlet (NY155)

That would work. I wanted a before/after type prefix, and this presents the same problem for pre-empire timelines, but this could work for now. Thanks!

I took a quick look and found the issue here. I will try to find a quick fix.
