| The end user specifies the simulation start date in the [[simulation settings]] window. The end date is either derived from the duration of the simulation (the end time-the start time), or given by the user. When working with dates Ecolego converts the simulation time to a calendar date. This means that leap years are taken into account. | The end user specifies the simulation start date in the [[simulation settings]] window.
