What an excelent system ! I am absolutly amazed how much a difference this system makes to the realism of the shard, the light changes are so subtle you dont really even notice them either. Well Done!
Now, off to see about how to sync the wrist watch, and clocks to the given time system
**Edit**
Are static lamp posts, and other luminated items (frozen to the static files) adjustable at all for different light circles? ie; making LampPosts have a wider light circle... or would a guy need to adjust that via scripts, and place them as items in game, for adjustability?

I have updated the Clocks.cs and Spyglass.cs for the system already. I will be posting how to make the changes in the next version release.
The system does not control static lampposts, as they are a static and cannot be controlled. The light circles depend on each item's light circle radius that you set. The system will not override those settings.Dian said:
You can create your own BaseLights and update the script to manage them. Be sure to set Protected = true so that players can't tamper with the lights.
I will be releasing the new version quite possibly tomorrow. It's a big update, which will include custom formatting support for the way the [time, [basetime, and double clicking any clock item will display the date/time.

v1.1.0 released:
For formatting help, please view Formatting.txt located in the zip file.
- Fixed a bug that when specifying a number without a decimal point for the timerspeed, it would reject the attempt due to it being an int instead of a double.
- Added a [TS STOP, [TS START, and [TS RESTART commands which will stop, start, and restart the time system. When stopping the system, it does not perform the calculations for light level and time. It will display the day level until the system is started again.
- Added instructions for how to modify Spyclass.cs and Clocks.cs to reflect the moonphase and time.
- Added time zones with ability to configure them yourself based on how many location.X is considered 1 minute. This was a huge overhaul to the system to be able to do this. The default is 16 X is 1 minute and can be changed via [TS SET TIMEZONEXDIVISOR <number>
- You can disable using time zones by typing [TS SET USETIMEZONES false, in which the system will perform calculations on each tick of the timer only, and not each and every time a player moves.
- Added [BASETIME command that gamemaster's and above can use to check the system's base time, which is the time the system keeps track of basing it's time zones from. Using [TIME will display the time in the current time zone.
- Changed the variable name m_UseItemLighting to m_UseAutoLighting which means you will type UseAutoLighting instead of UseItemLighting using [TS SET.
- Fixed a bug where changing the moonphaseday would not recalculate the light levels until the next timer tick.
- Added a [TS SETTIME <hh:mm> command to allow you to set the time a bit easier.
- Added a [TS QUERY command to query the time system to see if it is running, and if it is, how fast is it calculating time.
- Added a Support.cs script to assist the system as well as help move some methods out of the Time System.cs so that the file is not too big.
- Added custom formatting. This was a huge update. You will type [TS SET TIMEFORMAT <format> to set the formatting for the [TIME and [BASETIME commands. You will type [TS SET CLOCKTIMEFORMAT <format> to set the format for when double clicking on clock items. There are six presets you can choose from.
For formatting help, please view Formatting.txt located in the zip file.
Uber update. You're my hero, seriously. Taking something 'simple' like displaying an ingame time and making it a fully customizable system.
As for formatting, $nth$ = <3
Gonna go install it now and poke at formatting x3 (-is a dork-)
Question, could I in theory bump up the month count to 13 and just add a new month name to the list of months?

Fwee.
Noticed two things. Clock.cs gives assembly refference errors. Just copied and pasted from spyglass.cs
..and the [TS SET TIMEFORMAT command doesnt work so well because of the clients limited characters
For example I tried:
[TS SET TIMEFORMAT The time is $hr-ap$:$mn-2$$ap$ on the $da$$nth$ of the $mo$$nth$ month of year $yr$. The moon is $mp$.
and the client cuts off "onth of year $yr$. The moon is $mp$."

Please post the errors you are receiving from modifying Clocks.cs.Rhexis said:
If you edit Time System.cs and go under the Constant Variables region, you will see towards the bottom of that region a list of presets. For now, change one of the presets to match what you want. I will fix this issue by allowing to "append" to the time format.

Which is solved when I add the same things that are in spyglass.cs:
using System.Collections;
using Server.Gumps;
using Server.Network;
using Server.Mobiles;
using Server.Items;
using Server.Engines.Quests;
using Server.Engines.Quests.Hag;
..and the warning only appears when I get errors with /any/ script..but goes away once I solve the errors.
..and I realized the editting presets just as you posted that x3

You could make a GUMP for the TS command,
And you could add a system that saves the time into a HTML page, so, we could display the time in our page !!!
The work is really GREAT !!!
Thank you!
