Move to next wp at a certain hour

[iNeo 0]

Hey,

Is there any way to have a unit proceed to next WP at a certain hour, e.g. 20:00?

Thanks,

Since you know what time the mission starts at you could simply set the wait time in the conditional of a waypoint. That would make the unit wait the set number of seconds before proceeding

Condition

</span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">

daytime > 20

<span id='postcolor'>

for 20:00

daytime returns hours of day. So 17:30 would be 17.5 a.s.o.

Mmm, but there's another issue making it impossible to use that method - I'm using the skiptime at another part of the mission, which I guess messes it up for me:

Say that I want a unit to move from A to B at 20:00. Mission starts at 12:00. At some time between 12:00 and 16:00, a skiptime command goes off and skips 1 hour...

Shit, what was I thinking, countdown thing in the trigger works for me anyway :-)

Need another thing though. In some mission in Red Hammer, they used a script to make the time pass faster. Everything was normal, except for the sky and the time: the clouds moved fast, and the sun crossed the sky faster, etc., but everything else was normal, you walked normal etc. DestroyerX asked for this earlier, more than half a year ago, but I can't find it no matter what I search for. If I remember correctly, RED knew the answer.

Thx,

iNeo

Thanks alot bigpoppa

I guess this works for several days also, like daytime > 33 means next day at 9 am?

Alot appreciated

I am not sure if daytime > 33 will work, I expect it won't but when you try it letme know if it does.

Big thanks to you too, RED

I'll let you know about daytime greater than 24 within 72 hrs.
