Adding server time/clock in game

[Snovie 2]

Hello! 

 

Is it possible to add a server time/clock in-game that indicates the time of the server?

Yes, it is. Reference: https://www.lua.org/pil/22.1.html

get_local_time = get_local_time or function()
  return os.date("Current time: %X")
end

print(get_local_time())

I'm not sure what lua version top server files run on but I assume it should work, you've got to replace the print statement though with say SystemNotice(role, get_local_time())

Wait, i mean as its displayed on top of the screen itself as of all the time, like top right next to the map itself, and will tick automaticly (kind of like a mod)

Hello @Snovie!

 

I think for doing that you must edit game.exe or src and also edit UI in order to display at client. Thought lua is possible doing a ads system, something as like @patrick13 showed.

Not possible to put a Client MOD like v3ctor has added for Discord on it?

Ask if he can do such.

@V3ct0r You can make such mod?

Oh sorry I misunderstood the question. I reckon it would require edits on both client and server considering that you'd prefer to control it via server.
