Show a turn order where a fast unit really acts twice as often as a slow one

Games with a visible turn bar promise that speed matters, but the bar goes wrong when two units are due at the same moment: the order jumps, or a unit loses a turn after many rounds. Here is a way to line up the next turns that stays exact however long the battle lasts.

Why this works

Adding a small amount again and again picks up tiny rounding errors, and over a long fight those errors flip close decisions. Working out each unit's next moment from how many turns it has taken, and comparing by cross-multiplying whole numbers, keeps every tie a true tie.

When not to use it

Wrong for games where every side acts in turn, such as chess-like duels, or where actions cost different amounts of time; there use a timeline where each action pushes the unit back by its own cost. Skip it if nobody sees the order.
