Trying to get the exactly time

Hi, I'm trying to get the exactly time in seconds to be printed in the console window. But as deltaTime method actually gives the time in seconds between each subsequent frame, so... I can't get a precise time count. Any guesses of what I should be doing? P.S: Sorry for my bad english.

Code (CSharp):

1. public class PrintTimeScript : MonoBehaviour {
2.  
3.     private float getTime = 0f;
4.     private int index = 0;
5.  
6.     // Update is called once per frame
7.     void Update () {
8.  
9.         getTime += Time.deltaTime;
10.         if (getTime > index){
11.             print (index += 1);
12.         }
13.     }
14. }

 

You're trying to get the time in seconds of what then?

If you're trying to get the time in seconds since something the player did earlier, you can just add Time.deltaTime to a variable every update from the time you want to start tracking until the time you want to display it.

If you want the time since the game started, you'd use Time.time.

If you want the time of day, you'd use DateTime.Now()

 

Actually, I'm just testing. I want to start counting time since the play button is clicked and print only full seconds like:

1
2
3
4
(...)

And not:

1.46572
2.56748
3.73827
(...)

 

Ah okay, now that makes some more sense to understand.
Simply print it as an int, or formatted with no decimal places:

Code (csharp):

1. print("time: " + ((int)getTime).ToString());
2. // or
3. print("time: " + getTime.ToString("N0"));

Something like that.
