Display local time in client
I'd like to have a clock on the screen so that I don't lose contact entirely with the real world
Here's a quick proof-of-concept I hacked together:
(I'm not a C++ programmer, so I copied the existing progress bars and knocked this up. There's probably a more elegant way of doing it).

Re: Display local time in client
It is getting quite crowded up there already. Yet a clock could be quite useful, especially for the “addicted†and time restrainted.
General suggestion:
* Make the labels and buttons in the top row toggable.
Clock suggestions:
* Make it toggle between local and server time (by perhaps clicking on it) and have a way of showing which is shown.
* Perhaps using the user’s locale where possible to format the time.

A quite superfluous gimmick, in my opinion. Just play TMW in window mode and you can see the clock of your desktop.

Please do not send me any inquiries regarding player accounts on TMW.
You might have heard a certain rumor about me. This rumor is completely false. You might also have heard the other rumor about me. This rumor is 100% accurate.

this would be quiet useful , if someday TMW has its own day / night system
and its own internal time system.
and its own internal time system.

A small clock displaying local time shouldn't be too difficult to manage. I would think this would be rather easy. And if you find it a "superfluous gimmick", make it removable such as a player's name (Setup > Video > Show Name). Call it Show Local Time.Crush wrote:A quite superfluous gimmick, in my opinion.

And if there's not enough room on the Video Tab of the Setup window, try removing the virtually pointless "Visible names" option. (I'm still trying to figure out when removing everyone's name from the screen is going to make this game more effective.)
