Enigmaster2002	Is there a way to edit the output of world.realtime to just "Hour:Minute:Second"? I wanna make a timestamp system in my game but I don't want the date in there.

Jon88	You can use time2text.

Bear in mind that world.realtime is constrained by BYOND's rather limited floating point, and because it's such a large value, it ends up being rounded off to the nearest 6.4 seconds. This is kind of a major pain in the butt that a lot of people are hoping to see resolved in BYOND 4.0.
