Examples
<lsl> //--// GMT function with local offsets in 12hr format //--//
integer gIntMinute = 60; //-- 1 minute in seconds integer gIntHour = 3600; //-- 1 hour in seconds integer gInt12Hr = 43200; //-- 12hrs in seconds integer gIntDay = 86400; //-- 1 day in seconds
string fStrGMTwOffset( integer vIntLocalOffset ){
//-- get the correct time in seconds for the given offset
integer vIntBaseTime = ((integer)llGetGMTclock() + gIntDay + vIntLocalOffset * gIntHour) % gIntDay;
string vStrReturn;
//-- store morning or night and reduce to 12hour format if needed
if (vIntBaseTime < gInt12Hr){
vStrReturn = " AM";
}else{
vStrReturn = " PM";
vIntBaseTime = vIntBaseTime % gInt12Hr;
}
//-- get and format minutes

vStrReturn = (string)vIntMinutes + vStrReturn;
if (10 > vIntMinutes){
vStrReturn = "0" + vStrReturn;
}
//-- add in the correct hour, force 0 to 12

vStrReturn = "12:" + vStrReturn;
}else{
vStrReturn = (string)(vIntBaseTime / gIntHour) + ":" + vStrReturn;
}
return vStrReturn;
}
default{
touch_start( integer vIntTouched ){
//-- '-8' is california time, no adjustment for DST
llSay( 0, "The time is now " + fStrGMTwOffset( -8 ) );
}
} </lsl> <lsl> // Gets the number of milliseconds since midnight UTC. integer GetGMTmsclock() {
string stamp = llGetTimestamp();
return
(integer) llGetSubString(stamp, 11, 12) * 3600000 +
