Description:: Returns date and time when mission started in format [year, month, day, hour, minute, second] in MP, which differs from date format only by seconds. In SP returns [0,0,0,0,0,0].

ⓘ
Because this command returns the time of the actual start of the mission, it might not be available in pre-init or init, but is guaranteed to be available in post-init when time > 0
Groups:: Mission Information

Syntax:: missionStart
Return Value:: Array - real local date and time (similar to date format but with seconds)

Example 1:: setDate (missionStart select [0,5]);
Example 2:: Set real date: //postInit = 1; if (isServer) then { waitUntil {time > 0}; setDate (missionStart select [0,5]); };
