Script: [v13+] Unreal Time System (like Minecraft)

# Time proportion here. # So if it is 100, one second in real time will be 100 seconds in game. # If it is 60, one second in real time will be one minute in game. NTS_TIMEPROPORTION=60
Change the time proportion there if you want the time to be faster.

Is it possible for the time to pass by even when the game isn't running? oO

def pbGetTimeNow
  return Time.now if !$PokemonGlobal || !$PokemonGlobal.startTime
  timeProportion = 2
  return (Time.now - $PokemonGlobal.startTime)*timeProportion + $PokemonGlobal.startTime
end

Ty! But when I add it i get a Type Error.

def pbGetTimeNow

  timeProportion = 2
  actualInterval = Time.now - $PokemonGlobal.startTime
  return Time.at($PokemonGlobal.startTime + actualInterval*timeProportion)
end

Hi there, Unreal Time users,

I'm struggling to figure out an issue in which the Time Received (and Time Hatched, if applicable) on a Pokémon's or Egg's summary screen is 4 hours earlier than the actual time it was received or hatched. I successfully added the "Watch in the Pokégear" feature using the tutorial that's on the Essentials Wiki (also by FL; your scripts are fantastic), so I'm able to compare the time shown in the summary screen to the time shown in the Pokégear, and confirm that the summary screen is the only one that's incorrect.

I first realized the issue because I'd set the game's initial time to be 1:18am, and I noticed that Pokémon and Eggs were showing their Time Received as the previous day. I then made the following changes to PScreen_Summary, on PageOneEgg and on PageTwo:

Code:

 if pokemon.timeReceived
      month=pbGetAbbrevMonthName(pokemon.timeReceived.mon)
      date=pokemon.timeReceived.day
      year=pokemon.timeReceived.year
      time=pokemon.timeReceived.strftime("%I:%M %p") # CHANGED
      memo+=_INTL("<c3=404040,B0B0B0>{1} {2}, {3} at {4}\n",month,date,year,time) # CHANGED

It successfully added the hour and minute received to the summary screen, in addition to the date and year that were already there, and I was able to confirm that the difference was 4 hours; for example, a Pokémon received at 1:30am would show 9:30pm of the previous day on its summary screen. However, I've got no clue why it's happening, or how to fix it.

I did also check the summary screen with Unreal Time turned off, and the time and date shown then matched the real time, which was also what displayed in the Pokégear.

Any thoughts? Thank you!

Thanks so much, FL! That solved it.

For whatever reason, Time Hatched was still showing as 4 hours previous, even when Time Received was correct. I went into PScreen_EggHatching, and it already said 'pokemon.timeEggHatched=pbGetTimeNow', so I just added '+14400' (4hrs in seconds) to the end of it, which was a bit of a "blunt instrument" style approach, but it worked! Don't know why that would have been the case, but I solved it, so I'm happy.

This script was really awesome the only problem I have now is that I tried to put it in another project and when I go to the pause menu it won't display in the pause menu. Do I have to do something to make the time display in the pause menu?

I want to make it like when the player heals his pokemon, time will advance by three hours.
I saw the first few comments, but since it was mainly for when the player sleeps, I didn't try it out...

It works exactly the same way as when the player sleeps.

In the Unreal Time Script, you have to define the variable "NTN_EXTRASECONDS", that affects the current time.

You can then do this in an event (for example in each nurse event):
Set Variable {Your NTN_EXTRASECONDS Variable} to +10.800 (there are 10.800 seconds in 3 hours);

Note: If you freeze the time using the NTN_SWITCHSTOPS switch, you need to be sure that the switch is OFF before attempting to change the time (otherwise it won't work)

At my script.

def pbGraphicsUpdate
          $PokemonGlobal.addNewFrameCount 
          pbGraphicsUpdateold
        end
      end
    end
  end
end

def pbGraphicsUpdate
          $PokemonGlobal.addNewFrameCount 
          pbGraphicsUpdateold
        end

    if !@lastHour || @lastHour != pbGetTimeNow.hour
          @lastHour = pbGetTimeNow.hour
          $game_map.need_refresh = true
        end
      end
    end
  end
end

Do you mean here?

Code:

def pbGraphicsUpdate
          $PokemonGlobal.addNewFrameCount 
          pbGraphicsUpdateold
        end
      end
    end
  end
end

If so. It should be like this?

Code:

def pbGraphicsUpdate
          $PokemonGlobal.addNewFrameCount 
          pbGraphicsUpdateold
        end

    if !@lastHour || @lastHour != pbGetTimeNow.hour
          @lastHour = pbGetTimeNow.hour
          $game_map.need_refresh = true
        end
      end
    end
  end
end

Click to expand...

      def update
        $PokemonGlobal.addNewFrameCount
        updateold
      end

      def update
        $PokemonGlobal.addNewFrameCount
        updateold
    	if !@lastHour || @lastHour != pbGetTimeNow.hour
          @lastHour = pbGetTimeNow.hour
          $game_map.need_refresh = true
        end
      end

FL said:

No. I meant between 'updateold' and 'end' here:

Code:

      def update
        $PokemonGlobal.addNewFrameCount
        updateold
      end

So the code should be:

Code:

      def update
        $PokemonGlobal.addNewFrameCount
        updateold
    	if !@lastHour || @lastHour != pbGetTimeNow.hour
          @lastHour = pbGetTimeNow.hour
          $game_map.need_refresh = true
        end
      end
