Time Canceling (T-METER)
Galactic Civilization has reached new heights. With the introduction of Time Canceling Devices, users are able to travel through time!

The devices come equipped with an auto fail safe which will disintegrate your former self preventing any possible time paradox.
Use these devices to perform special mechanics such as Double Time Canceling (DTC), Jump Time Canceling (JTC), and Absorb Time Canceling (ATC). Be careful, energy is limited and is directly connected to your TC Meter.
