night and day cycle

[carl101]

hi i want to make my server have 3hour day and 1 hour night on a 4hour hour restart.

 

i know this is done in the hiveext.ini but what changes do i make?

[Time]
;Possible values: Local, Custom, Static
;Type = Custom
Type = Static
;If using Custom type, offset from UTC in hours (can be negative as well)
;Offset = 0
;If using Static type (Hour value always the same on every server start), the value (0-24) to set the Hour to
;Hour = 11
Hour = 10

if someone could help me out id be reatful :)

Change the Hour setting to 15, which is 3 pm. This will be about as close as you can get since it isn't just night and day, there is also dusk and dawn which last about an hour each.

Ok I'm assuming that's the static one ? The 10 needs changing to 15?

Also how does the server know to use the static time rather than the custom time ?

Cheers for the help

Didn't bother mentioning the type since you already had it correct. A ; (semi-colon) is a comment command so any line starting with it is skipped, all of these values are set up by internal code when the server starts up. Since the static type is the one uncommented that is why it's used.

 

Hour = 15

 

is how it should look
