Accessing Date And Time...NEW COMMAND!?

Goboom · #1 05-18-2002, 02:03 AM

there really needs to be a way to set the date and time on graal according to your computers reading...which could cause a problem though....yet...is there a way with time var to make it so that the time reads like diffrent time zones????

why dont you just make a database npc in realtime

like a this.string or something, then just just the this.string and it should work exactly right unless there is a server crash

whats the point of having it.. id just look on the start bar for the 'real' time

Well just use timevar, thats what its there for. I am weary of these future improvements threads in the npc scripting forum, am I alone?

well for some things when you went to use new messaging rc commands and have them dated.

Perhaps fullscreen mode. I never use that anyway...

Full screen mode always seemed to mess me up =/ Like it would not show the bottom portion of the screen. This happened on both of my computer. Does anyone ACTUALLY use full-screen mode? It always seems like people try and AVOID it. He he. And with the server time displayed, what is the point?? Can you do an if (time=) or something would be a better question.

I never use it, because if you switch windows, and go back to graal, it's all blury. Plus it lags a lot. If i want a full screen window, i just stretch the current window, which is a lot better, because you still have access to other things without messing anything up.

im not sure what you all are talking about with fullscreen.. we were talking abou time but if you mean showing time on layer 4+ and having it out of place from other stats on fullscreen..

thats simple

dont do screenwidth\blah
do an int like 80 for y, and 200-300 for x

Gah, the reason why I personally dont go fullscreen is b/c the playerlist cant be part of the normal window. Its so pathetically stupid going into fullscreen when your playerlist blocks your view of the left or right side of the screen. PLEASE stefan MAKE THE PLAYER LIST A PART OF THE SCREEN !!!!

Ugh, I hate the fullscreen. Wait a sec, hate is a pretty strong word... I REALLY hate fullscreen mode.
