Summary
Function: float llGetWallclock( );| 0.0 | Forced Delay |
| 10.0 | Energy |
Returns a float that is the time in seconds since midnight Pacific time (PST/PDT), truncated to whole seconds. That is the same as the time of day in SLT expressed as seconds.
For GMT use llGetGMTclock
Examples
<lsl>// Real World Sun integer Flag;
default {
state_entry()
{
Flag = -1;
llSetTimerEvent(0.1);
}
timer()
{
float time = llGetWallclock();
if (Flag == -1)
{
llSetTimerEvent(60.0);
}
if (time < 21600)
{
if (Flag)
{
llSetText("The Sun is coming! :)", <1,1,0>, 1.0);
Flag = 0;
}
}
else if (time < 64800)
{
if (Flag != 1)
{
llSetText("Sun has risen. :(", <1,0,0>, 1.0);
Flag = 1;
}
}
else if (Flag != 2)
{
llSetText("Goodbye Sun. :(", <1,0,0>, 1.0);
Flag = 2;
}
}
}</lsl>
<lsl>// Convert to human-readable HH:MM:SS format string ConvertWallclockToTime() {
integer now = (integer)llGetWallclock();
integer seconds = now % 60;
integer minutes = (now / 60) % 60;
integer hours = now / 3600;
return llGetSubString("0" + (string)hours, -2, -1) + ":"
+ llGetSubString("0" + (string)minutes, -2, -1) + ":"
+ llGetSubString("0" + (string)seconds, -2, -1);
}
default {
touch_start(integer total_number)
{
llSay(0, ConvertWallclockToTime());
}
}
</lsl>Notes
To determine if the current time returned by this function is PST or PDT, you can look at the difference between llGetGMTclock() and llGetWallclock(). The difference will be either 8 hours or -16 hours for PST, and 7 hours or -17 hours for PDT, that is 28800 or -57600, or 25200 or -61200 seconds.
