Counting non-played time.

For certain game types such as farming or simcity, would it be possible to save real time to a bank when a player is not playing?
For instance have a bank save the current time 3:00pm while playing. Then when you play the game at 7:00pm, it computes 4 hours have passed?
I want to work on a map where you farm or grow a community but maybe it takes hours or so.
I'm not for games that take 21 days for something to pass, but maybe an achievement or reward.
Such as a new worker a day or for statistics?

There's no trigger function to get system time unfortunately, even with the latest patches.

That's what i thought, this is unfortunate. So much room for activities

Ultraviolet -- just sent you a message on Discord. I suspect you're probably trying to change unit speeds for units that don't use flingy.dat for movement (like any units that walk instead of hovering/flying). You can change their movement to flingy, but they unfortunately look more like they're gliding than walking when you do that.

Symmetry -- EE2, I've been using setdatfile successfully for units.dat and weapons.dat but the flingy changes don't seem to happen

Ultraviolet -- in EE2 you just open DatEdit, go to the flingy tab, and make whatever changes you want. Though if you want to do dynamic shit, you have to use the trigger editor with the setdatfile action. And of course you have to inject your changes when done. Can give more specific troubleshooting advice if you provide more details
