First three arguments to StaticDateTime[]

[H0N3YB33]

Trying to set a static date for a waning gibbous moon just after sundown, setting the 5th line in epochconfig.bpp to:

 

// Time based 

StaticDateTime[] = {2024,7,18,4,0};

 

Does not seem to set the date I had in mind - there is no full moon on the server like there is in the editor.  The way I understand the arguments to this function is:

 

// Time based 

StaticDateTime[] = {Year,Month,Day,Hour,Minute};

 

I noticed that the hour was decremented - as if it is zero indexed, so putting 4 actually starts the server at 5am.  Is it possible that all of these values are decremented by one?

 

Thanks

it might be. I can confirm setting the hour to 9 sets it to 10 .

 

Maybe something for the bugreport section?

 

I'd try (2023,6,17,4,0)  and see if that fixed it :P

You looked at your server time settings ? the hour being off by 1 full hour is usually caused by DST/BST

Ah lol ok, so dates won't be influenced by that :P

 

Never mind then.

 

I'd call for a "fullmoonnights" settings in the feedback section in that case. Like A2 had.

Interesting - I guess I'll just have to experiment.  Do you know if the dynamic weather controls have any available configurations?  Its pretty much always raining in the month of July, 2024 :P

Wait until the AH gets developed more. I remember we had weather settings in A2. They'll come back.
