Checking in-game time outside of the game?
 
Forgive me if this is a stupid question, but is there any way to check the in-game time without logging in? I hate logging in only to find it's night time and I can't see shit.

Cheers

Whenever people try to make boat schedules or day night schedules they break very quickly. Our game uses the popular 72 minute day found in most MMOs but ours is not as consistent for database schedules of stuff.

Right on, no worries. Thanks for the reply.

I just check twitch. There's usually someone outside on p99.

Forget it, it is always night time, every single time. Invest in a Glowing Band.

Do you avoid playing if it's night time? if it's that much of a deterrent make an elf toon... or buy a lantern :v

I have found the game time is typically stable over many months. So you can write a function to tell you what the Norrath time is and only have to sync it up rarely.

As someone mentioned game days are 72 minutes -- that means exactly 20 game days fit into one real day. So if you note that 2:10pm in real life is 5am game time or whatever, that relationship will stay true for probably months.
