Fixed some incorrect references about this function returning region uptime - which is not the case at all. See https://feedback.secondlife.com/scripting-bugs/p/llgettimeofday-fails-to-return-server-up-time |

Summary
Function: float llGetTimeOfDay( );| 0.0 | Forced Delay |
| 10.0 | Energy |
Returns a float that is the time in seconds with subsecond precision since Second Life midnight (per the parcel-scoped day cycle settings).
By default (without custom environment settings), Second Life day cycles are 4 hours long, but can be configured to anywhere between 4 and 168 hours long.
Examples
default
{
touch_start(integer total_number)
{
float tod = llGetTimeOfDay( );
llOwnerSay("Time since midnight on current parcel:");
integer hours = ((integer)tod / 3600) ;
integer minutes = ((integer)tod / 60) - (hours * 60);
llOwnerSay((string) tod + " seconds which is "+(string) hours+"h "+(string) minutes+"m");
}
}
