Displaying playtime

[isobellesophia]

Hello

I am back for another question, can somebody help me of having the time counting of the game/playtime on screen?
And also, when the player finishes the game, or having the ending finished, the time will stop and it will display in the text dialogue for how much time consumed of playing that game. And quits the game.

Thanks for who could help.

I'm not sure how useful it is to you but I use this on the save screen:

Code: Select all

init python:
    import time

## game runtime counter
default playtime = 0

init 2 python:

    def save_playtime(d):
        renpy.store.playtime += renpy.get_game_runtime()
        renpy.clear_game_runtime()
        d["playtime"] = renpy.store.playtime

    config.save_json_callbacks = [save_playtime]
    
    
    ############## The above can go anywhere in the screens file ############
    
    
                        text FileTime(slot, format=_("{#file_time}%A, %B %d %Y, %H:%M"), empty=_("empty slot")):
                            style "slot_time_text"
                            
                        $ playtime = FileJson(slot, "playtime", empty=0, missing=0) 
                        $ minutes, seconds = divmod(int(playtime), 60)
                        $ hours, minutes = divmod(minutes, 60)
                        text "Playtime: [hours:02d]:[minutes:02d].[seconds:02]":
                            style "slot_time_text"

style page_label is gui_label
style page_label_text is gui_label_text
style page_button is gui_button
style page_button_text is gui_button_text

style slot_button is gui_button
style slot_button_text is gui_button_text
style slot_time_text is slot_button_text
style slot_name_text is slot_button_text

style page_label:
    xpadding 50
    ypadding 3

style page_label_text:
    text_align 0.5
    layout "subtitle"
    hover_color gui.hover_color

style page_button:
    properties gui.button_properties("page_button")

style page_button_text:
    properties gui.button_text_properties("page_button")

style slot_button:
    properties gui.button_properties("slot_button")

style slot_button_text:
    properties gui.button_text_properties("slot_button")

It allows each save file to display its own runtime as text on the save screen.


I imagine you could modify it to display at the end of a playthrough with minimal work.

Sorry, its something I lifted from a cookbook entry.
I'm not too well versed in the json behind it (or at all, really)

Perhaps somebody else can help further.

Nvm, you edited the code, thanks for the help!
