Need help with time system

[Swinwappy]

Hi,

So I found this code online and wanted to edit it slightly (I'm quite new to Python):

Code: Select all

init python:
    class day_time(object):
        def __init__(self):
            self.day = 1 # set this to whatever starting day is
            self.weekdays = ["Monday","Tuesday","Wednesday","Thursday","Friday","Saturday","Sunday"] # arrange these so first weekday goes first
            self.time_of_day = ["8AM","9AM","10AM","11AM","12PM","1PM","2PM","3PM","4PM","5PM","6PM","7PM","8PM","9PM","10PM","11PM","12AM","1AM","2AM","3AM"] # add or remove to increase time of day slots
            self.end_of_day = self.time_of_day[-1] # automatically picks last slot as end of day

        @property
        def weekday(self):
            return self.weekdays[(self.day-1)%7]

        @property
        def time(self):
            return self.time_of_day[0]

        def advance(self, increment = 0, days = 0):
            if not (increment + days): # no input
                increment = 1

            if days: # add to increment by length of time_of_day
                increment += days * len(self.time_of_day)

            while increment > 0: # loop through increments to shift timeslot and days forward
                if self.time_of_day[0] == self.end_of_day:
                    self.day += 1
                self.time_of_day.append(self.time_of_day.pop(0))
                increment -= 1 # reduce incrememnt to escape loop after enough runs




default clock = day_time()

Essentially, what this does is implement the 7 days of the week as well as a time system (8am - 3am). You can pass time with:

Code: Select all

clock.advance()

You can pass a few hours with

Code: Select all

clock.advance(3)

And when time passes after 3am, the day of the week increases by one.

So currently if my player does something at 3am that advances the time by 3 hours, the day increases but instead of starting at 8am, they of course start at 10am.

I want to be able to add on to this a system so that if the player does something that advances time past 3am, they get a message that says "It's late so you go to sleep", and then increases the day, but sets the time to 8AM.

Long shot, but could anyone help me with this, nothing I've tried works.
cheers!

Untested, but you might find it easier to work with something like this:

Code: Select all

init python:
    class day_time(object, start_time=0):
        def __init__(self):
            self.t = start_time   # count a constantly-increasing number of hours since the game began
            self.weekdays = ["Monday","Tuesday","Wednesday","Thursday","Friday","Saturday","Sunday"] # arrange these so first weekday goes first
            self.times = ["8AM","9AM","10AM","11AM","12PM","1PM","2PM","3PM","4PM","5PM","6PM","7PM","8PM","9PM","10PM","11PM","12AM","1AM","2AM","3AM"] # add or remove to increase time of day slots
            self.end_of_day = self.time_of_day[-1] # automatically picks last slot as end of day

        @property
        def day(self):
            return int(self.t/len(self.time_of_day)) + 1  
            
        @property
        def weekday(self):
            return self.weekdays[(self.day-1)%7]

        @property
        def i_time(self):
            return self.t % len(self.times)

        @property
        def time_of_day(self):
            return self.times[self.i_time]
        

        def advance(self, increment = 0, days = 0):
            if not (increment or days): # no input
                increment = 1

            need_sleep = False
            start_day = self.day
            
            self.t += days*len(self.times) + increment
            
            if (self.day > start_day):
                # if we've passed a night, reset the clock to 8AM
                self.t = (self.day - 1) * len(self.times)
                renpy.notify("It's late so you go to sleep.")
                need_sleep = True
                
            # this is optional, but you might want to trigger a game action when sleep 
            # happens, such as calling a scene?
            return need_sleep


default clock = day_time()

Keeping time as a constantly-increasing integer, and then computing hours and days and whatever from it as necessary, is how your computer operating system does it.

Cheers for this, I'm getting an error though.

Code: Select all

File "game/script.rpy", line 10: invalid syntax
    class day_time(object, start_time=0):

D'oh. It should be:

Code: Select all

init python:
    class day_time:
        def __init__(self, start_time=0):

D'oh. It should be:

    class day_time:
        def __init__(self, start_time=0):

I'm getting this now O.o

Code: Select all

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

It seems like you must have a copy error somewhere? Could you post a copy of *your* version, starting from the 'init python' line?

You're right. I edited the new lines you gave me wrong! Thanks for your help with this zmook!

Time's advancing rather weirdly now. I'm not too sure exactly what's causing this (time & day are at the top left):

Ah, lines 10-11 should be:

Code: Select all

        def day(self):
            return int(self.t/len(self.times)) + 1
