Day Night Cycle

Recommended Posts

Hello there i am curious how the serverTime = "SystemTime"; // Initial in-game time of the server. "SystemTime" means the local time of the machine. Another possibility is to set the time to some value in "YYYY/MM/DD/HH/MM" format, e.g "2015/4/8/17/23". exactly works. If i change it to 2015/4/8/5/00 does that mean i get a 5 hour offset to local time ? Currently my night day cycle is tied to system time and the speed modifier is 1 so day and night take the rl lenght. However i would like to offset this so the day starts 4 hours later and night begins 4 hours later.

If you put 2015/4/8/5/00, that means every time your server starts it is April 8th 2015 at 0500 in the morning. Watch this video. It explains all. Start from beginning but around 1:30 is where he starts explaining. 

He is using a rented server but all you need to do is open your "serverDZ.cfg file and change your2 settings.
