Notes
-
Very useful function - great for giving a "campaign" feel to a running battle. Try this in your init.sqs file:
while(true) do {
skiptime 0.00333 ~0.1 }
This will make each day pass in around 12 minutes - great fun watching sunsets and the night sky!
Not to be confused with accTime.
A useful piece of code that will enable the mission to skip forward to any given time, irrespective of what time it happens to be in the mission is:
skipTime (_timeToSkipTo - daytime + 24 ) % 24

- Note that time can also be skipped "backwards", ie. you can provide negative values and jump back in time.

- In ArmA, skipTime does not actually estimate weather changes beyond moving the clouds across the sky. Weather counters continue as if no time has passed.
