Accessing time of day via code

[ReptilesD]

Hello,

 I’m trying to find documentation on how to change the hour and minute in the weather setting via code. Can anyone point me in the right direction or pose some examples?

You are going to want to tie into the GaiaGlobal with the public class GaiaTimeOfDay

Thank you for the reply. Can you be more specific please or direct me to the documentation. I’m still developing my coding skills so I’m looking for a more detailed explanation or reference examples.

Can anyone help? As anyone had any success with this?

[Bryan]

int hour = 5; float minute = 40f; Gaia.GaiaAPI.SetTimeOfDayHour(hour); Gaia.GaiaAPI.SetTimeOfDayMinute(minute);

Hour is an int and minute is a float

You can also set the data block and tweak the other settings if you need to.
Here is an example of that.

Gaia.GaiaTimeOfDay tod = Gaia.GaiaAPI.GetTimeOfDaySettings(); tod.m_todHour = 5; tod.m_todMinutes = 40f; Gaia.GaiaAPI.SetTimeOfDaySettings(tod);

The GaiaTimeOfDay has the following settings: (bool)Enabled/(int)Hour/(float)Minute/(float)TimeScale. The starting time of day is no longer in use and will be removed.

Hope this helps in setting the time of day

Perfect! Thank you.

Is there similar commands for starting rain and other weather effects etc?

There should be it will be just farther down in the API Script Code.
