Scratso Posted February 20, 2014 Author Share Posted February 20, 2014 Is it possible to make an EO2 game have a Night and Day system where it will switch to night after, lets say, 30 minutes and switch back to day after, maybe, 15 minutes? And I would like for it to be Server-centered – IE, everyone sees nights and days at exactly the same time when logged on. Would this be possible?If it is, please help me to accomplish this and not just say "yes". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slasheree Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Or with a little more work you could make something like this:[http://imgur.com/a/p5qgl#1](http://imgur.com/a/p5qgl#1) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scratso Posted February 21, 2014 Author Share Posted February 21, 2014 Also, is it possible to add an Admin Access Level in EO2? Such as admin level "Scratso" that has the entire chat text x colour for y player? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PD Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 You need to create a label with the control name of 'Label8' and place it on 'frmServer'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeathKnight Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 This might be a silly question, but did you remember to delete all your maps? I don't remember 100%, but I think this adds something to the map file, so you have to delete them for it to work. Try making a backup, then deleting all your maps and seeing if it works then.

Stein Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 For future reference, if you tamper with the data that's saved for anything you may need to delete your old versions of said data or it will cause issues like this. The engine will blindly ASSUME the right data is in the right place, and read what it wants. However this does not always work out as intended.

The engine will blindly ASSUME the right data is in the right place, and read what it wants. However this does not always work out as intended.For example, if something was to mess with player data the same would apply as this? Ok, I understand.
