GaiaAPI "GetTimeOfDayEnabled()" returns false with HDRP Time of Day enabled

[mroshaw]

Hi!

I'm trying to make us of timed spawns in the awesome new "Soul Link Procedural Spawner" asset. It uses the "GaiaAPI" to get the state of both "time of day" and "weather conditions" from Gaia.

What I've found is that with the HDRP Time of Day system enabled, the GaiaAPI call to "GetTimeOfDayEnabled" returns false. I assume that, because I have HDRP Time of Day enabled, this should return true? I'm using the latest Gaia Pro 2021 (3.2.5).

Thanks for your thoughts!

Hey, yes it seems that HDRP Time Of Day was not added to this gaia API yet, i have added it now and will be added in a Gaia update. For now you can replace the function with this updated version just select all the function and just paste the new code i have sent below.

        /// <summary>
        /// Gets if time of day is enabled
        /// </summary>
        /// <returns></returns>
        public static bool GetTimeOfDayEnabled()
        {
            if (GaiaUtils.GetActivePipeline() != GaiaConstants.EnvironmentRenderer.HighDefinition)
            {
                if (GaiaUtils.CheckIfSceneProfileExists())
                {
                    return GaiaGlobal.Instance.GaiaTimeOfDayValue.m_todEnabled;
                }
            }
            else
            {
#if HDPipeline && UNITY_2021_2_OR_NEWER
                HDRPTimeOfDayAPI.GetAutoUpdateMultiplier(out bool autoUpdate, out float value);
                return autoUpdate;
#endif
            }

            return false;
        }
