Answered Calculating exact Travel Times

How are travel times calculated?

This question has been asked before, but I've yet to find something which answers it fully. The answer seems to be related to: world unit speed, speed of unit, distance between islands, city offset depending on position on island/island type. The units have a set 'preparation time' depending on world speed, and then the TT will increase linearly with distance.

I know the devs don't want to expose the game code for some parts, but considering scripts like GRC already include TT calculators (calculated perfectly), I think it's reasonable to expose this part - especially for those who can't download GRC which results in an unfair advantage for others.

I assume that the map is taken as a 2D Plane and the distance is divided by travel-speed.
