Time To 12 / 24 Hour Clock

Hello. I am currently using Network.time wich returns a value (seconds). It returns as an int.
What I want to do is to take this value. And convert it to a 12 and 24 hour clock depending on a bool.
Seems easy enough. my problem arrives when the value becomes something like 1515953 seconds. It needs to reset once the timer hit its final. And this calculation needs to be done equally across all the clients.

How would this be done?

 

do the calculations on the server and send it to the clients. make properties for the minutes and hours.

Code (CSharp):

1. private int _seconds;  
2. private int _minutes;
3. private int _hours;
4.  
5. public int seconds
6. {
7.     get
8.     (
9.         _seconds = Network.time;
10.         return _seconds;
11.     )
12. }
13. public int minutes
14. {
15.     get
16.     (
17.         _minutes = (int)((seconds/60f)%60);
18.         return _minutes;
19.     )
20. }
21. public int hours
22. {
23.     get
24.     (
25.         _hours = (int)((minutes/60f)%24);
26.         return _hours;
27.     )
28. }

untested...

 

if it's just a display issue you can format the value into the string by passing the appropriate format into the tostring function.

Sadly its about calculation.

Seems to have ALOT of formatting errors. Expecting }s & )s everywhere.
Mind looking over it?

 

Nvm. Fixed it. This is my code:

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2. using UnityEngine;
3. using System.Collections;
4. using UnityEngine.Networking;
5.  
6. public class TimeSync : NetworkBehaviour
7. {
8.     private int _seconds;
9.     private int _minutes;
10.     private int _hours;
11.     private string _time;
12.     public string CurrentTime;
13.     public int Multiplier = 1;
14.  
15.     public int seconds
16.     {
17.         get
18.         {
19.             _seconds = System.Convert.ToInt32(Network.time) * Multiplier;
20.             return _seconds;
21.         }
22.     }
23.     public int minutes
24.     {
25.         get
26.         {
27.             _minutes = (int)((seconds / 60f) % 60);
28.             return _minutes;
29.         }
30.     }
31.     public int hours
32.     {
33.         get
34.         {
35.             _hours = (int)((minutes / 60f) % 24);
36.             return _hours;
37.         }
38.     }
39.  
40.     public void Time()
41.     {
42.         _time = hours + " : " + minutes;
43.         CurrentTime = _time;
44.     }
45.  
46.     void Start()
47.     {
48.         InvokeRepeating("Time", 1, 1);
49.     }
50. }
51.  
52.  
53.  

What now happends is that the string currenttime. the hours field allways becomes 0. The minutes field is working fantastic though. Any clues to why this is?

 

Any clues to getting the hours working? We need to somehow increment it by one everytime our minutes hit 0 right?

 

By using TimeSpan. This code was typed up without the aid of Unity or an IDE. There may be problems (eg permissions).

Code (CSharp):

1. using System;
2. using UnityEngine;
3. using UnityEngine.Networking;
4.  
5. enum TimeFormat { TwelveHour, TwentyFourHour };
6.  
7. public class TimeSync : NetworkBehaviour
8. {
9.     private TimeSpan currentTime;
10.     public string currentTimeString;
11.  
12.     public TimeFormat timeFormat;
13.  
14.     public void SetResetTime(int hours, int minutes, int seconds)
15.     {
16.         resetTime = new TimeSpan(hours, minutes, seconds);
17.     }
18.  
19.     public void SetResetTime(int days, int hours, int minutes, int seconds)
20.     {
21.         resetTime = new TimeSpan(days, hours, minutes, seconds);
22.     }
23.  
24.     private void SetCurrentTime()
25.     {
26.         currentTime = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(Network.time);
27.    
28.         if (timeFormat == TimeFormat.TwentyFourHour)
29.         {
30.             currentTimeString = currentTime.Hours + " : " + currentTime.Minutes;
31.         }
32.         else
33.         {
34.             int hours = currentTime.Hours;
35.             string designator = "AM";
36.        
37.             if (hours == 0)
38.             {
39.                 hours = 12;
40.             }
41.             else if (hours == 12)
42.             {
43.                 designator = "PM";
44.             }
45.             else if (hours > 12)
46.             {
47.                 hours -= 12;
48.                 designator = "PM";
49.             }
50.        
51.             currentTimeString = String.Format("{0}:{1:00}{2}", hours, currentTime.Minutes, designator);
52.         }
53.    
54.         CheckResetTimer();
55.     }
56.  
57.     private CheckResetTimer()
58.     {
59.         if (currentTime.Equals(resetTime)
60.             // do whatever
61.     }
62.  
63.     void Start()
64.     {
65.         InvokeRepeating("SetCurrentTime", 1, 1)
66.     }
67. }

 

Yes, There is plenty of issues with the code. Mind trying to fix it?.And also. What is the "ResetTimer" functions? I do not want any days on record. I only want to have a clock. I have currently made 24 hours ingame to 1 real hour.

This is my current code? Is there an easy way to convert my code to yours.

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using System.Collections;
3. using UnityEngine.Networking;
4. using UnityEngine.UI;
5.  
6. public class TimeSync : NetworkBehaviour
7. {
8.     private int _minutes;
9.     private int _hours;
10.     public string CurrentTime;
11.     public int Hours;
12.     public int Minutes;
13.     private Text timeText;
14.  
15.     void Awake()
16.     {
17.         timeText = GameObject.Find("TimeText").GetComponent<Text>();
18.     }
19.  
20.     public int minutes
21.     {
22.         get
23.         {
24.             _minutes = (System.Convert.ToInt32(Mathf.Round(System.Convert.ToSingle(Network.time) / 2.5f)) % 60);
25.             return _minutes;
26.         }
27.     }
28.     public int hours
29.     {
30.         get
31.         {
32.             _hours = (int)((minutes / 60f) % 24);
33.             return _hours;
34.         }
35.     }
36.  
37.     public void Time()
38.     {
39.         CurrentTime = Mathf.Abs(hours) + ":" + Mathf.Abs(minutes);
40.         Hours = hours;
41.         Minutes = minutes;
42.         timeText.text = CurrentTime;
43.     }
44.  
45.     void Update()
46.     {
47.         Time();
48.     }
49. }
50.  
51.  

 

You wanted the clock to reset itself after it reached a certain time. The original idea of the script (I clearly missed putting something somewhere or copy/pasted the wrong version) was to update the current timespan with the time reported by the network code and once it reached the reset timespan it would reset to zero or something.

I think I was pretty out of it when I typed up that script. It's more broken than I thought it might be.

 

I never want it to reset.
All I want is to convert a counter that increments by one every second into a clock. And I want to make 24 ingame hours into 1 real life hour. I did this like this: _minutes =(System.Convert.ToInt32(Mathf.Round(System.Convert.ToSingle(Network.time)/ 2.5f))%60); At the moment. Mind fixing the code?

 

BUMB.
