Ive Been Looking For The Scripting For the p2p servers (like server time)

[JoMomma]

Ok I can help you with the server time issue...

Currently, ALL servers (this includes non-pay servers) and clients have a build-in variable called "timevar". Every 5 seconds, timevar is incremented by 1 by the server. This is also saved by the server so that outages won't reset it :P

On Graal 2001 this is how they have it setup:
30 ticks = 1 hour
720 = 1 day
17280 = 1 month
414720 = 1 year

Now if you're a good scripter and want to do stuff with division to get each part, you'd probably want to do something like:

NPC Code:

---

this.time = timevar;

this.year = int(this.year/414720);

---

BZZT! Won't work... Once it gets up to about 1 month, you start getting floating point errors with division. I recommend something like this:

NPC Code:

---

for (this.year=1;this.time<414720;this.year++) {

  this.time -= 414720;

}

---

Do the same thing for month, day, etc etc... Of course something like HOUR would need you to start off at 0 and not 1, cause it's military time. Oh, and if someone like Kyle or Tyhm doesn't like this type of code, well... it's the best I could think of to get beyond the division problems.

You may wanna put the time up too. You'd use:

NPC Code:

---

showimg 200,state.png,x,y;

changeimgpart 200,x,y,width,height;

changeimgvis 200,4;

---

changeimgvis with a parameter of 4 lets you display stuff LOCALLY and in a fixed position. This way it can act like a status bar. Also more importantly: it makes the x/y PIXEL values, and not CELL values. So it's not 64x64 anymore with that, but it IS what you need.

This should be all ya need to know.
