Jayenkai	TimeCheck I'm posting this at 21:03 on Thursday 27 July 2017. GMT Is the time accurate on your display? What time does your screen say??! -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

steve_ancell	It displays Posted : Friday, 28 July 2017, 15:03 - Mark Unread

Jayenkai	Hmm.. That's in the future. What time does your PC think it is?! -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

GfK	Says the right time, here.

Jayenkai	Either something's wrong with Steve's PC's clock, or something's wrong with my automated time-sync javascript code. For some reason, the site's set Steve's time offset to +25 hours! A very bizarre thing for it to do. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

GfK	I'd hazard a guess that it's your code since there's no timezone on earth where it's currently 25 hours ahead of BST!

Jayenkai	Sure there is.. Tomorrowland!!
Thu, 27 Jul 2017, 14:37
Jayenkai	OK, double checked everything and did a little tweaking. Let me know if that fixes it, Steve.. (And/or breaks it further!!) -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

GfK	Mine now says October 21st 1955. GREAT SCOTT!! (not really).

cyangames	How are you syncing your timers? I normally retireve the server time, offset for geolocation, then bung that in javascript and use a 999ms interval function to manipulate it by a second each run though. Works pretty well for countdowns, etc. -=-=- Web / Game Dev, occasionally finishes off coding games also!

rockford	Time appeared right for me.

Jayenkai	Day of the month * 24 + hour It compares (javascript on your side) your current system time against the server's time, and if they're different it requests an update via a background request. It's only an hourly resolution. Nothing minute or second specific. But it shouldn't be 25 hours out!! -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

steve_ancell	At the moment my PC clock is 2310 \|update\| -=-=- \|update\| I don't know what you adjusted but date and time here are now correct.

GfK	Shit it's 293 years fast!

steve_ancell	LOL I just noticed I forgot to put in a semicolon.
