Making time pass mid mission

[Jubal Savid 10]

I have a mission where players reach a point where there supposed to spend 3hrs. 

I would like to have some kind of event, such as a fade to black or flash of light take place that when the event is over it will be nighttime and the players can begin there mission. 

Only problem is I have no idea how to even begin going about this. 

Any tips or suggestions?

Entering "Arma 3" followed by your thread title into google is usually a good idea and will yield plenty of results.

Usually skipTime will do the job here, as long as you execute it on the server.

If you're using a trigger for your event simply use it as server only and put skipTime in its onAct field.

 

Cheers

@zagor64bz, @Grumpy Old Man, @Jubal Savid,

Sorry I couldn't help myself,

 

ptime = this addAction ["Pass Time", "execVM ""sexy.sqf"""];

sexy.sqf

titleCut ["5 hours later", "BLACK FADED", 5];
skipTime 5;
deleteVehicle girl;
sleep 3;
titleCut ["", "BLACK IN", 5];
player sidechat "Oh. Good she left.";

Off topic but I have to say; Brilliant, @wogz187!

Also, she looked pretty rough... Best check your TV is where you left it.
