Not to be confused with '''_time'''. Within a script, the reserved local variable '''_time''' returns the time elapsed since the script started running. Note that the value of time is not saved when the mission is saved and so will be reset to zero when a mission is restarted from a saved position. The value of _time is saved correctly and will resume from where it was.

On overloaded servers (below ~10 server FPS), time readings are unreliable. Seconds actually take longer.

Client time is synchronised to server time during JIP, but other than that it runs independently.

Notes from before the conversion: Not to be confused with _time. Within a script, the reserved local variable _time returns the time elapsed since the script started running. Note that the value of time is not saved when the mission is saved and so will be reset to zero when a mission is restarted from a saved position. The value of _time is saved correctly and will resume from where it was.
