VO universe universal time

Nov 22, 2009 Alloh link
Hi

This post is not about put a clock somewhere.

Instead, dealing with Time Zones, and TZ variation of players.

My proposal is to define a "VOZ" - VO universal timezone.

this VOZ can be =GMT or ="server time", but used everywhere. In-game, on annoucements, on web posts, so on.

then someone writes/updates clock plugin to show both VOZ and local time. Or maybe a small update on HUD add a dual clock on screens >=1024x768

More imersion, no more TZ problem...

Way ahead of you, partner. GMT is Vendetta time, there's a plugin to show time, and all the problems listed are solved. There's no need to re-brand GMT (or UTC, as it should be called) VOZ. Especially because VOZ sounds silly.

not much used. Logs show local time, online annoucements are made with gmt and server time, pplz use their times...

Maybe if default client has a default clock on it, only HH:MM certainly all pplz would use it... since its a plugin, or command, most pplz ignores it.

Given my total aversion to plug-ins, I'm pretty sure the GMT clock on my HUD is a client default.

[Edit]I'll check, ladron...if I have a plug-in, it's from more than 2 yrs ago[/Edit]

It's actually part of the pirate's toolkit/TCS, Lecter.

Coincidentally, Pirate's Toolkit/TCS should be part of the default client.
