To change [[daytime]] To 24 hour format with hours, minutes, and seconds use this:
<code>//[[daytime]] = 1.66046
_hour = [[floor]] [[daytime]];
_minute = [[floor]] (([[daytime]] - _hour) * 60);
_second = [[floor]] ((((([[daytime]]) - (_hour))*60) - _minute)*60);
_time24 = [[text]] [[format]] ["%1:%2:%3",_hour,_minute,_second];
//_time24 = 1:39:37</code>
Note: Not perfect method, "12:03:06" will display as "12:3:6", more script needed to remove this. Other methods might exist for basic functionality.
