Is it possible to define time? - K9IsGodly - 05.01.2014

Title basically says it all, could I define like a second, minute, hour, day, month, year, etc? Then somehow incorporate that into a command that shows the date? Any help would be appreciated.

You mean this? I created this function before, or you could simply use getdate(..) and gettime(..)

pawn Код:

stock GetTodaysDate()
{
    new
        dString[ 18+2 ],
        Date[ 6 ]
    ;
            //Year      //Month     //Day
    getdate(Date[ 0 ], Date[ 1 ], Date[ 2 ]);
            //Hour      //Minutes   //Seconds
    gettime(Date[ 3 ], Date[ 4 ], Date[ 5 ]);

    format(dString, sizeof (dString), "%d/%d/%d %d:%d:%d", Date[ 2 ], Date[ 1 ], Date[ 0 ], Date[ 3 ], Date[ 4 ], Date[ 5 ]);
    return dString;
}

Kind of like this, but how could I make this right here into a /time command using ZCMD?

This should work.

pawn Код:

CMD:time(playerid, params[])
{
    new string[ 30 ], Date[ 6 ]
    ;
            //Year      //Month     //Day
    getdate(Date[ 0 ], Date[ 1 ], Date[ 2 ]);
            //Hour      //Minutes   //Seconds
    gettime(Date[ 3 ], Date[ 4 ], Date[ 5 ]);
    format( string, sizeof( string ), "Todays Time: %i:%i", Date[3], Date[4]), SendClientMessage( playerid, -1, string );
    format( string, sizeof( string ), "Todays Date: %i:%i:%i", Date[ 0 ], Date[ 1 ], Date[ 2 ]), SendClientMessage( playerid, -1, string );
    return true;
}

    return true;
}

Works perfectly, thanks man! One question though, is it possible for it to display the time like how for me right now it's 3:41 P.M. versus displaying it as 15:41 P.M.? So I guess what I mean is is there a way to have it print like 3:41 P.M. or if it was 3:41 A.M. it could detect that, too?

CMD:time(playerid, params[])

            //Year      //Month     //Day

    if(Date[ 3 ] >= 12 && Date[ 4 ] > 0)
    {
        Date [ 6 ] = Date[ 3 ] - 12;
        format( string, sizeof( string ), "Todays Time: %i:%i PM", Date[ 6 ], Date[ 4 ]), SendClientMessage( playerid, -1, string );
    }
    else if(Date[ 3 ] < 12 && Date[ 4 ] > 0)
    {
        format( string, sizeof( string ), "Todays Time: %i:%i AM", Date[ 3 ], Date[ 4 ]), SendClientMessage( playerid, -1, string );
    }
    return true;
}

this should work the way you want...

A more compact version:

pawn Код:

CMD:time(playerid, params[])
{
    new string[ 30 ], Date[ 6 ]
    ;
            //Year      //Month     //Day
    getdate(Date[ 0 ], Date[ 1 ], Date[ 2 ]);
            //Hour      //Minutes   //Seconds
    gettime(Date[ 3 ], Date[ 4 ], Date[ 5 ]);
    format( string, sizeof( string ), "Todays Date: %i:%i:%i", Date[ 0 ], Date[ 1 ], Date[ 2 ]), SendClientMessage( playerid, -1, string );
    format( string, sizeof( string ), "Todays Time: %i:%i AM", Date[ 3 ]%12, Date[ 4 ]), SendClientMessage( playerid, -1, string );
    return true;
}

Your code will always show AM mate he still needs to switch statements with if condition

My bad,

Код:

format( string, sizeof( string ), "Todays Time: %i:%i %s", Date[ 3 ]%12, Date[ 4 ], (Date[3] >= 12 ? ("PM") : ("AM"))), SendClientMessage( playerid, -1, string );
