Skiptime how to make it daylight only.

[neilreed]

Hi iam creating a mission that requires the computer to be on for 48 hours . but i only want the mission during the daylight hours between 7.30 and 3.30
how  can i use skiptime command to skip time at 3.30 back or forward to 7.30 . constantly/ or looped.

can i use a trigger that activates at 3.30pm all the time and skips time to 7.30am ?


thanks

A very simple way to do this is to use the commands daytime and skiptime in a trigger.

EG:
Set the trigger to be repeating and set the Condition field to be

Code: [Select]

daytime>=15.5
then put

Code: [Select]

skiptime 16in the Activation field

What happens here is that when the time reaches 3:30 pm the trigger will activate and skip forward 16 hours.  Note that you need to check that the time is >= 15.5 not just = 15.5 in case it checks at 15.49 and then again at 15.51.  If you used only the = then it would not trigger.

thank you very much . i had developed a workaround using some of your earlier answers but this is much better.
