[Utility] Clock Adjuster

[bmos]

Ruleset 4E

I noticed when doing a short or extended rest, the effect in the combat tracker is not being removed when there is an effect time limit like Start, End, End of Turn, Encounter.

https://i.imgur.com/hMDMcEy.pngthat toggle is 4e only.
Looks like the 4e version of the next round function needs to get added to support the feature in 4e.

[Honken]

I love this extension! But one gripe I have with it, is it doesn't display (in the chat, when loaded) any kind of version number.

Could you point me into the right direction on where I should add this 4e function. I will attempt to add it in. Thanks!

CombatManager.nextRound(nRounds) is the CoreRPG function. Probably this function has been replaced in 4E. Look in the LongTermEffects script to see how I modified it for this ext.

[Malleg]

I did make a very minor modification to shorten the round to 1 second for compatibility with GURPS this is my forked code if anyone needs it

I remarked out all the "-- Function Overrides" and it seems to be working correctly in 4e. Didn't notice it causing any issues but if you think it will mess something up let me know.

Sounds like your effect durations will not be counting down when you advance time

[kevininrussia]

Thanks for that heads up but I don't think that will be a problem in 4e as it has a different duration system.

Conditional Durations
Until the Start/End of someone's next turn: The effect ends when a specific creature's next turn starts or ends (usually the creature producing the effect.)
Until the end of the Encounter: The effect ends at the end of the current encoutner, or after 5 minutes, whichever is first.
Save Ends: The effect ends when the target makes a successful Saving throw.

Some effect can be sustained until end of encounter or up to 5 minutes but that does not really need to be tracked.

oh great! then you have probably done the right thing.

Thanks again for all involved with this extension. My players were always bugging me for an extended rest to get their powers back but now I can inform them that its only been 3 hours sense they woke up :-) hehe

[kevininrussia]

There is an extension on DMsGuild called Mad Nomad's Consumable Items. Would be cool if this extension could use Consumable Items to consume a ration on a short rest and/or on extended rest.

I would only want that as an OPTION. If you're on a quest, you may want to ... er ... ration your rations. In which case, you might choose to not eat rations, say, every other day.

[MeAndUnique]

It is important to select a proper ratio when rationing rations to rationally ensure ones maximum rate of survival.

On the "Weather Wind", "Weather Temperature", and "Weather Precipitation" tables I had to delete the - and a space between the words on the DMG tables to get this to function properly.

Hey there, I'm loving this extension but I've noticed one thing that I'm hoping could be modified so that it runs even smoother.

In the combat tracker when you give a spell, ability, or item that is currently in use a duration, it's amazing that the clock adjuster will modify this duration automatically! This has allowed me to just set long duration spells like mage armor on characters in the combat tracker and then forget about how much time they may or may not have left on the spell. The game will remember and it'll expire the effect when the clock is adjusted past the spell's duration point. I love it! I also love how having combat that runs for over 10 rounds will automatically adjust the clock by 1 minute so that the combat tracker and the clock adjuster are talking to one another and both keep track of time's passage and any associated durations.

However, I noticed what appears to be an oversight.

When you're in a combat encounter, and you are using the combat tracker to pass time at the turn/round scale ... you can deactivate an effect a character has on the tracker, and when a new round pops up the game will not decrease their duration so long as that effect is deactivated. I use this for things like torches (which have a 1 hour burn duration) because my players often put them out in an area that already has light, only to light them back up again at the next dark passage. So I make frequent use of this deactivate/activate effects feature in the combat tracker.

The problem I'm experiencing is that when I push time forward via the clock adjuster ... it will decrease the duration on all effects, even the ones that are deactivated. Which makes it troublesome to keep track of the remaining duration left on consumables like torches and what not.

Is there a way that the extension could be tweaked so that it checks to see whether and effect is currently active or deactivated in the combat tracker, only decreasing its duration if the effect is currently active? I think that would be a great addition to an extension I am otherwise in love with. Thanks.

[bmos]

Is there a way that the extension could be tweaked so that it checks to see whether and effect is currently active or deactivated in the combat tracker, only decreasing its duration if the effect is currently active?Perhaps effects set to skip could continue to reduce duration but those set to off would not?
I think there still needs to be the option to skip the effect bonuses/penalties but still have it count down.

[jfg1984]

I think there still needs to be the option to skip the effect bonuses/penalties but still have it count down.

That's how the base FGU code appears to treat the off and skip settings when you're passing time via turns and rounds during a combat encounter, so yeah it would be cool if the clock adjuster copied that formula and also reduced duration if set to skip, but did not if set to off.

Since it seemed that it was once again under active development (and integrated my changes up to that point--without acknowledgement), I discontinued Time Manager. I then posted some suggestions here but have not heard from pr6i6e6st in this thread since then.

Because my changes were now included in ClockAdjuster, I have been posting builds here instead of maintaining a separate Time Manager extension.

Greetings!
First of all, I would like to thank and congratulate the triad that developed this extension.
I would also like to clear some doubts about its operation in relation to the Travel function and the Reminders:
Let's say I have set the following date:
10/01/1920 3E with the time at 06:30 AM
Let's say I've set up the following Reminders:
15/01/1920 3E - End of Kennel Construction
And the following Event Alert:
Travel's Ration consumption for every 4 hours and that it is active.
So the characters need to travel 7 days and travel 10 miles/hour and the set travel time is 4 hours.
When I click the travel button inside the travel window the time in the main window advances, but the event alerts don't appear in the chat, I'll try to make a video demonstrating what I'm trying to say and I end this long text with the question:
Do you think about adjusting this?
And most importantly, is it possible to adjust so that travel time triggers alerts?

I think the long/short rest time fields stay set to the last entry so it would make sense the adj hours/mins fields behave the same way. That said if they all are options or all use "stay set" works equally well for me.

Edit: So in the new version the long/short rest time field are now not saved as well. I see now what is going on. So either as options or last set fields works for me.

[JustinFreitas]

The reason I did options in my FGC branch is because I usually always have my long/short rest the same at 8hr / 60min. I tried a 'last used' implementation but ended up back at options in the end. If you need me to look at anything when you pull whatever in, just add me as a reviewer to the PR and I'll give it a look!

I've come back to help figure things out and wanted to share here and let you all know before submitting to the forge (will stay free). Let me know if you run into any issues. Hopefully I was able to get this in before too many changes by others were made. It might still be a bit messy in the TimeManager script right now, but its late and last time I tried cleaning it out I somehow deleted something I needed so I will wait, but here are the functions I've made that are key to utilizing features like reminders and events.

I've added script to allow other extensions to make use of the time as I have with reminders and events:
local aCurrentDate = TimeManager.getCurrentRawDate() -- gets a table of the current time
local aBuildDate = TimeManager.buildRawDate(nMinute, nHour, nDay, nMonth, nYear) -- gets a table of the time given
local nMinutes = TimeManager.getRawDateDifferences(aCurrentDate, aLastDate) -- gets the difference in minutes
TimeManager.setLastDate(Node, aCurrentDate) -- for repeating events like reminders
local aLastDate = TimeManager.getLastDate(Node, aCurrentDate) -- for repeating events like reminders
TimeManager.addTimeChangeFunction(f) -- add a function to be triggered on TimeChange events

and if you have an extension that could benefit from these functions, you can add
if TimeManager then
TimeManager.addTimeChangeFunction(MyNewFunction);
end

then if you change time with your extension, you just call TimeManager.TimeChanged() right AFTER, never before the adjust function.

hopefully you all find this works out.

oh, and I capped the table rolls by reminders to 60, so you don't kill your computer when you jump a year.

Well, you beat me to this... I was going to use this idea to learn the LUA stuff... dang it!

Thanks though... I will definitely use this a LOT!

The only things I was going to include that don't appear to be here are...

1. A more abstract output of time for the players based on a range of hours... like "Just after high sun", "Mid-morn"... etc.
2. The color of the theme changing to reflect the time for more immersion.

Obviously, both would/should have options in the settings to turn them on and off.

You could do this as another extension by overriding the CalendarManager.outputTime() function, as that is what is called to display the time in most instances (except reminders and events)



2. The color of the theme changing to reflect the time for more immersion.

Obviously, both would/should have options in the settings to turn them on and off.
This too can still be done as another extension. Many ways it could be done and will not effect the clock adjuster.

The CalendarManager in Core RPG should have much of what you need. The TimeManager.TimeChange() function of mine would be all you need to have it operate when time changed.

I left the code open in the forge too, so you can still go through and see what I have that you could utilize.

Hey there. I no longer can change the current time using control + mousewheel. Did you change how this works, is it a bug or is something wrong on my end?

Yes, that has been disabled due to how it will cause a bit of lag to cycle that way too much and to allow triggers to happen properly.

If you need to set a certain date like at the start of the campaign, you can still do so from the calendar.

Summary
When attempting to change the hours by either double-clicking the hours field or by clicking one of the 6am/12pm/6pm/12am buttons, an error is generated until the minutes value has been changed at least once.

Steps to Reproduce

Create a new 5E or PF1 campaign and activate the Clock Adjuster extension only.
Optional: Open a calendar module and select a calendar (tested with no calendar, the Gregorian calendar that ships with FG and with a custom calendar).
Change the time by either:

Setting hours adjustment field to a non-zero value and then double-clicking the field.
Clicking one of the Dawn / Midday / Dusk / Midnight buttons.



Result
The hour is changed as expected, but the following error is also posted to the console:

[ERROR] Script execution error: [string "scripts/manager_time.lua"]:110: attempt to perform arithmetic on field 'nMinute' (a string value)
This error will continue to occur every time the hour value is amended like this.

Workaround
Changing the minutes value - either on the FG Calendar screen or by setting the Minutes Adjustment field to a non-zero value and then double-clicking on it - prevents the error from occuring again.

Notes
Confirmed that it happens in both 5E and Pathfinder (1E) campaigns, haven't tested any of the other rulesets.

Can’t adjust a clock that doesn’t exist. You HAVE to pick a calendar first.

[bmos]

Can’t adjust a clock that doesn’t exist. You HAVE to pick a calendar first.It does look like humby did that.
Unfortunately, setting a calendar doesn't set minutes and hours. At least not if I remember correctly. This is why at one point I had "or 0" listed for all fields like nMinutes that might be missing values.
This is a result of getValue() not having a default value when fields have not been used yet (unlike DB.getValue()) which has the optional 3rd arg which is used as a fallback when it would usually return nil.

EDIT: didn't read error fully. value is string but should be number. i assumed it was nil.

Yeah I don’t think I changed any of that, so not sure what’s happening there, but by calendar I mean all the factors on the “calendar window” which includes the minutes and hours.

It’d be nice actually if the calendar set those to a default upon creation/setting up.

[humby]

It does look like humby did that.
Yes, first picked it up during the session I was running last night, which uses a custom calendar. Re-tested it this morning on a fresh campaign and forgot to set the calendar first, so had to create another fresh campaign where I did it properly. And then did it a few more times to test the other permutations.

When you set your calendar up, FG automatically populates the hours and minutes fields in the front end with 12:00AM so to an end user it does appear to have been done completely and correctly...

[bmos]

After looking at code and re-reading the error, it's not a nil error just something being handled as a string when it should be a number.
The issue is either in getCurrentRawDate, getLastDate, or buildRawDate.

Unfortunately since CurrentDate.nMinute and LastDate.nMinute both use nMinute in their names, you can't tell which is exhibiting the issue.

I'd start by just doing this to getCurrentRawDate:

function getCurrentRawDate(sFactor)
local Date = {};

Date.nMinute = tonumber(DB.getValue("calendar.current.minute", "", 0));
Date.nHour = tonumber(DB.getValue("calendar.current.hour", "", 0));
Date.nDay = tonumber(DB.getValue("calendar.current.day", "", 0));
Date.nMonth = tonumber(DB.getValue("calendar.current.month", "", 0));
Date.nYear = tonumber(DB.getValue("calendar.current.year", "", 0));

return Date;
end

although there could be a deeper issue here.

It does, and it’s unfortunate the node is not set as well. I’ll be looking into what happened to BMOS’s fix, why it’s not taking anymore.

A lot of people seem to like to start their campaign at midnight so guess I better hop on it as soon as I get done work :p

As a tangent, I’m currently working on adding automation for the AlienRPG within the clock adjuster, as the ruleset was what inspired me to create the extension in the first place. Lots of cool effects to be added, just got to iron out the details a bit more. So the fix will come when that feature is complete.

Ok I’ll check that out. Although something I noticed before was in the desktop widget, the various values were being called incorrectly, and I can’t remember if I fixed that for all of them or not. They were doing something like DB.getValue(“calendar.current.minute”, 0); which I don’t think returns what we expect. It should be DB.getValue(“calendar.current.minute”, “”, 0); or DB.getValue(“calendar.current”, “minute”, 0);

So if that wasn’t fixed everywhere, that may be part of the problem too. I’ll take a look after work here. Thanks for the tip.

[pr6i6e6st]

alright so ran some tests after changing some things, and got that issue out of the way. First, i changed a lot of the DB.setValue() and DB.getValue() functions in the desktop_pannels.xml, because a lot were not set properly from my understanding of how those functions work. calling DB.setValue("calendar.current.*", "number", getValue()) had the value in the place of the node type, and the node type in place of the node name, and is thus replaced with "DB.setValue("calendar.current.*", "", "number", getValue()) for instance. likewise, the DB.getValue("calendar.current.*", getValue()) gets a default value of nil, and is looking for a child node of the value of the control, so i've replaced that with DB.getValue("calendar.current.*", "", getValue()).

also, the kicker of the fix really was more along the lines of what BMOS had said. so i replaced the function to add a DB.createNode() function to create it if it doesn't exist and set a default number, or get the value if it already exists.
function getCurrentRawDate(sFactor)
local Date = {};

Date.nMinute = DB.getValue(DB.createNode("calendar.current.minute", "number"), "", 0);
Date.nHour = DB.getValue(DB.createNode("calendar.current.hour", "number"), "", 0);
Date.nDay = DB.getValue(DB.createNode("calendar.current.day", "number"), "", 0);
Date.nMonth = DB.getValue(DB.createNode("calendar.current.month", "number"), "", 0);
Date.nYear = DB.getValue(DB.createNode("calendar.current.year", "number"), "", 0);

return Date;
end

so these fixes should be brought out after i get the ARPG functionality ironed out here. Hopefully soon this week.

[pr6i6e6st]

updated to fix the previously noted errors with new campaigns. AND

New! Automation added for the Alien RPG ruleset below:

effects can be added to a PC on the combat tracker to use time based automation:

HUMAN -- allows for scripts to identify this entity as a human, so they can roll the critical injuries table, add them to their character sheet and effects, roll stamina at Time Limit durations for critical injuries, heal critical injuries, gain stress on damage taken. some critical injuries results will add the point of stress automatically to the inflicted character.
SYNTH -- allows for scripts to identify this entity as a synthetic, so they can roll the critical injuries on synthetics table and add the injuries to their character sheet.
NEEDSFOOD -- will automatically roll consumable or stamina rolls when time advances, changes conditions, notifies of when to lose health.
NEEDSWATER -- will automatically roll consumable or deplete health when stamina rolls when time advances. changes conditions
NEEDSAIR -- will automatically roll consumable or stamina rolls when time advances. notifies when to lose health. changes conditions
FREEZING: TURN/FREEZING: SHIFT/FREEZING: DAY-- will automatically roll stamina rolls when time advances.
GETSTIRED -- will automatically roll stamina rolls for when time advances, will add SLEEPING effect when character cannot possibly stay awake. SLEEPING -- will ignore the
GETSTIRED function and reset its timer
CANHEAL -- allows healing over time
FEELSSAFE -- allows stress reduction over time

Clicking the freezing condition will automatically apply the FREEZING: DAY effect to the character.

an Option in the Options menu will allow you to determine if a turn is 5 or 10 minutes. Shifts are default 6 hours. hopefully with a little more work, i can get more of that automated in the future. for now, with need of the #1 fix, this should be sufficient. please come to me if you have any issues.

I'm seeing this same thing with the version from The Forge, but not in version 2.5, pre-forge. I'm also seeing that with "Time Manager Rounds Mode" set to "Full Process", the same adjustment of 10 minutes decrements an effect duration by 1 round instead of 10.

That is the correct behavior as there are 10 rounds in a minute.

yeah but i think they're using the Alien RPG, which is either 10 seconds a round or 5 seconds a round. They're still a bit off, but they're right that it's not correct. I've made a change, and this should fix the advancement for months too, since there was a static number for rounds per month, rather than something more dynamic. I'll upload shortly, just making sure i get it right.

I had an option in the Alien RPG ruleset to switch turn length and that wasn't done correctly, which kept it at a 10 second per round thing.

Alien RPG times
Round = 5 - 10 seconds
Turn = 5 - 10 minutes
Shift = 6 hours

This should be reflected properly in the next update

so yeah, I'm assuming you guys are using the Alien RPG ruleset. Rounds in the combat tracker reflect the "Rounds" of the Alien RPG, which are typically used in combat or time-sensitive situations. Rounds are 10 or 5 seconds. When you're using the combat tracker, it will refer to "Rounds" rather than "Turns", which are 5 or 10 minutes. (Shifts are 6 hours, while we're mentioning).

Either way, I've fixed that option for the Alien RPG to allow the variation to apply and fixed the month adjustment. Update should be live if you update from the launcher. :)

My apologies, for I should have mentioned that this is with the 2E ruleset. It looks like it's not explicitly supported there, at least in its current form. The version that I've been using was labeled 2.5 and was from before the forge. It worked in 2E (where 1 round = 1 minute) fine, but it looks like several changes have been made between that version and the version in the forge. I can continue using the old one. If I get time, I can look for what's changed between the versions, if that's of any use to you.

Thanks for the response and the update.

Thanks, Kelrugem. I'd love official support, too.

FWIW, I did manage to get the basics working with one-minute rounds by adding a User.getRulesetName() conditional for "2E" and setting appropriate nTurnLength for each time period's onDoubleClick function. I did the same with nRounds in advanceRoundsOnTimeChanged and statically adjust minutes by 1 in nextRound_new. I tested adding times and advancing rounds, which both worked well, but I didn't test anything else.

That might be it. I've set a month a day, but not a time.

Thank you so much for the quick reply!

In my screen shot, you will see I have "Round length in seconds" set to 6. It was set to 1, but after setting it to 6, it didn't make a difference. Besides, even set at '1', 3 minutes would only advance 180 seconds. The 3000 round duration would remain with time left. Anything else I can check? This only started a month or two ago.

[rmilmine]

Would it be possible to have the way the tables for encounters and weather are done be changed?
My suggestion would be to use the race field in the 3e is done.
Give an area where you can drag and drop the table you want to use. This would be better than having to have specific names for everything.
If you buy something that has tables, and there are multiple tables you would have to keep changing the names to get it to work with this. It would be easier to just drag and drop the table you want.
Since there are multiple options you could add a spot for each of those options.

Greetings. I just noticed that in my game, when I use the clock adjuster to pass time by minutes, the clock adjustor accurately reduces the duration from effects that are active on creatures in the combat tracker, like it should.
However, when I adjust time forward by hours ... the clock adjustor reduces the duration from effects that are active on creatures in the combat tracker by 10 minutes.

For example:

Armor of Agathys has a duration of 1 hour, or 60 minutes.
When the effect is applied to the creature on the combat tracker it loads in with a duration of 600 rounds, which is correct.
When I advance time forward on the clock adjustor by 1 minute, the duration drops to 590, which is correct since I have the time internal per round setting on the default of 6 seconds.
However, when I advance time forward on the clock adjustor by 1 hour, the duration drops to 490 ... which is only 10 minutes of time.

Maybe there's a missing zero in the code somewhere? Just FYI.

[bmos]

Greetings. I just noticed that in my game, when I use the clock adjuster to pass time by minutes, the clock adjustor accurately reduces the duration from effects that are active on creatures in the combat tracker, like it should.
However, when I adjust time forward by hours ... the clock adjustor reduces the duration from effects that are active on creatures in the combat tracker by 10 minutes.

For example:

Armor of Agathys has a duration of 1 hour, or 60 minutes.

I noticed this exact issue during my session last week.

I pushed the clock forward 1 hour after a combat encounter so that the group's spells would end and the Cleric's Freedom of Movement wasn't impacted until I moved it forward using minutes to which it responded properly.

I was hesitant to post about it because I assumed I had done something to screw up the settings, but I'm relieved it's a known issue.

[jfg1984]

Yeah, the easy solution for the moment is just to use minutes only instead of hours and the passage of time will calculate properly.

[Atru1n]

Is it possible to allow the round length to be set to 1 minute? Currently its limited to 30 seconds.

[AzureBlade]

I really like the chat and event logging functions, but, the one negative to it is when speaking in a language. My group usually speaks in languages (either Common or Elven, mostly) and the log doesn't record what is said in a language. Is it possible to add an option that would disable language obfuscation (of course, it'd be best if it could display differently if the player's character knows a language, but that doesn't seem like a realistic option to me)?

[nephranka]

Looks like the 1 hour advancement issue with effect durations has been sorted out. Thanks!

Very minor thing, but is it intentional that in windows_events.xml the buttongroup_counter object is named ".completedbutton"?
I've never seen a period at the beginning of the name of an interface object.

When I use a large decal, the clock adjuster gets hidden behind it. Any way to get it to sit on the top, the way the dice tower does?

You should be able to right-click to unlock the position and move the clock adjuster box anywhere you want.

Yes, I know how to move it, but if it's behind the custom decal, it doesn't really leave me a lot of space to put it. It would be easier if it could be layered to be on top of the decal. If it can't be layered over the decal, no big deal. I just won't use a decal, or will use a smaller one, but I thought it wouldn't hurt to ask.

True. You could use a smaller one, move it and then go back to using the one you like?

just adding my voice to Altruin's. This extension is great, works really well with duration effects, unfortunately as a 2e AD&D gm where game rounds are 1 minute as opposed to 6 seconds, it means my players burn through torches at the rate of 20 an hour! Having the ability to set rounds at 60 seconds would help square this extension up with 1e/2e AD&D. Once again, really appreciate this awesome extension!

[hawkeyepearce1066]

I've had a dig into the extension and figured out what to add to give a 60 second round option (quite pleased with myself, as before this afternoon I didn't know the programming language 'lua' existed). All sorted now, great extension!

nice work! you should share it here for any others who need it!

[hawkeyepearce1066]

Given that my 'contribution' to this extension amounts to... 3 characters ("|60") there's not much to share! But I've attached my ever-so-slightly modified version of the extension so that the lovers of 2e AD&D can enjoy their game at a slightly slower pace...

[Sulwood]

Question about the "clock adjuster box". Just moved to the Forge version of this extension and my box disappeared and can't find how to re-enable it.

Never mind - found the problem

[BushViper]

Is there a current known issue with the buttons to move the clock forward by hours/minutes? The extension works fine in every way except for those two functions. I can use every button on the UI element except for adjusting hours/minutes. Clicking on the two fields does nothing.

[hawkeyepearce1066]

I think to apply a change you Need to double-click (I've not got a pc in front of me, so can't confirm).

[BushViper]

I think to apply a change you Need to double-click (I've not got a pc in front of me, so can't confirm).

You have to double-click for all of the functions to work....

[hawkeyepearce1066]

If I remenber correctly, the short cut buttons (12pm,6pm etc.) are single click, while the other buttons are double click. I just remember when I first tried this extension I didn't know about double-clicking (no one ever accused me of being the sharpest knife in the drawer...)

Yep, you're correct about the row of buttons. I was referring to the modifiable number fields. Anyway, I know you were just trying to help. Thank you.

[DCrumb]

Are you able to enter a number into the number fields?

[BushViper]

Yep, I can change them both, they just don't respond to clicks and/or move the time forward.

[BushViper]

Ok, an update to this issue.

As I previously mentioned, everything on the timer works perfectly except the minute/hour buttons. However, today I realized that clicking the buttons does move time forward by their respective amounts, but the behavior is still very odd.

First, there is no text output to the chat window and secondly, clicking the two areas makes an odd 'chime' sound. Something you'd expect to hear when a button you're pressing is not responding or you're pushing a button before you are able to. Kind of like trying to hit 'next' before completely filling out an online form.

I can't be the only one having this issue, can I?

*edit* I suppose it would help to mention that I'm using the 5e ruleset.

[spencerg]

Would it be possible to update this extension, so that you can minimize and/or close the u.i. - I love the extension, but its not used enough for it to be open at all times, and we all know we have a window problem in FGU. I would love if you could drag this sucker onto a hotkey, and just fire it up when needed. Adding a close button, and even better, the ability to 'minimize' into a widget, would be greaaaatttt!

Thanks for your hard work, very cool extension.

[0m0n]

Not sure if this is a bug. When you reset initiative it sets the round to 0 in the CT. Was able to isolate it to Clock Adjuster causing this by only using this extension and testing. Is there a reason it does this as part of its function or is it a bug?

[BushViper]

**Update**

It's embarrassing to have to post this update, but I didn't want the creator to be chasing bugs/conflicts that don't exist.

The issues I was having with chat output and buttons not responding was due to me previously screwing around with the options settings and not being sure what the results would be.

I apologize and genuinely hope you didn't waste much (if any) time looking for a problem that didn't exist.

[cornGoodness]

I don't see the panel on the desktop. I picked a calendar, set a year and changed the hour and minutes to new values. Then I restarted and installed the extension but no panel. Do I need to do anything else?

update: Removed and reinstalled FG and all seems to be working now.

[Agamon]

Yeah, I'm also having this issue. New campaign, I've set the year, era, time and added some events to the calendar. But I don't get a panel, even after restarting FG.

[Agamon]

It appears to be working fine for me now. Not sure what was up there.

[macDsinfo]

many thx for this-seems to be working in pfsw (fwiw)...

[smokebadger]

I believe that clock adjuster is writing new story entries and I cant find a way to disable. such as "time" elvanna made a stealth check 20.
If I am incorrect I apologise , as I am trying to track down the mod causing this and finding way to disable.
after a session I open up the story entry andsee 10 "New story entries".

[cmeyer]

I think there is a way to turn off those time-stamps in the general Options area. (Not in my computer right now).

[nephranka]

The first two in the Clock Adjuster options:
Action logging and Chat logging. Disable both.

May want to look at Notify Date/Time/Phase as well.

[macDsinfo]

what are the options that show up on the player side? players ask me about them, and I do. not know what they are or what they do... thx

[Bonkon]

Good Day masDsinfo :)
I do not believe the players see the clock on their screens at all. They will see a time update in the chat window when you progress the time. You should be able to test this by logging into your own game (Either on localhost or joining your own cloud connection) to verify. :)

[spencerg]

Howdy,
I remember scanning through here and seeing that the original Author rarely updated the extension ? or am I mistaking?

I also remember seeing custom builds of the ext. uploaded inline on the thread, or linked to GIT.

IF there is a newer version, which I need to manually install, could someone point me to where I can get my hands on it.

Also, for the life of me, I cannot find a list of what the options do.

Most are self-explanatory, but there are a few that are questionable to me, such as action/chat logging and time round manger mode <quick/full process>

Lastly, and possible unrelated to this extension, but still in the realm of action logging...

I'd like the log to record hit rolls, actions, ect. But nothing I've ever turned on in 5e seems to keep those as part of the log inside the calendars logs. *Image attached*

Thank you.56073

[spencerg]

awesome, thanks.

[BushViper]

I haven't read the entire thread so I don't know if this has been touched on or not, but there is an issue with effects that are entered into the Combat Tracker using hours.

For example - If I add an effect that has a duration of 1 hour, it doesn't work properly in the Combat Tracker, but the same effect with a duration of 60 minutes works perfectly.

Then it would be good to mention this on the forge page and maybe also unlink this forum thread from the forge page :)

Though I personally prefer if the forum thread support stays, that increases accessibility (not everyone uses Discord) and one does not need to join another server just for an extension :)

(though I am also not totally sure about the difference to a discord chat, support-wise, also a discord chat can become too large, so that one tends to mainly focus on the recent posts for answering questions, and so on)

[TheoGeek]

Hey guys - BushViper pointed out a conflict between Clock Adjuster and my Nat20 extension that was indeed an issue with Nat20. I fixed the root issue in Nat20 that looks to be working and should be uploaded sometime today after a few more tests.

Thanks!
Jeff.

[TheoGeek]

6.2 of Nat20 has been uploaded to the forge. It fixes this and should also prevent future conflicts with other extensions that use EffectsManager functions.

[YAKO SOMEDAKY]

I don't know but I noticed that when I activate the Clock Adjuster extension, in the options part the following fields are always blank and if I choose and close the options and open them again it goes back to being blank.
As for the number of tasks that players can do are 1 or even infinite?

[Hjorimir]

Great extension. Three pieces of feedback:
1) Would love it if the Clock Adjuster would remember the values you set within it.
2) I wish I could drag buttons/shortcuts so I could tap a key to advance the clock an hour or 10-minutes.
3) When you advance by hours or minutes, effect timers are updated. I wish it would do the same when you advance the clock (e.g., clicking the Advance time to Noon).

[YAKO SOMEDAKY]

I think this tool is very powerful!
I wish she had a watch, yes that's right!
So when I started the campaign, I could say The Date is ... and The Time is ... So I would press "play" and the seconds would start to run and together with that I could speed up time or slow it down... but I think that this would be a very complex step for the tool.

[bmos]

I think that this would be a very complex step for the tool.Actually that would not be too hard to implement by integrating this extension with Timer (https://forge.fantasygrounds.com/shop/items/665/view).

[YAKO SOMEDAKY]

But then it would depend on the creator of both creators (you and mattekure), right? I would say with that it would be perfect!

[spencerg]

Could you 'officially' add the option for 60 second combat rounds. Max is 30 seconds. AD&D is 60 seconds. There is a modified version of the extension buried in here somewhere, but it would be nice to add it too the official version so that if/when it gets updated, the change doesnt get whacked... Thank you!

I hacked the code so it interacts with all effects with durations on the combat tracker (although I use a 4 phase per turn system).

Been searching for a while for an answer but couldn't find anything. I can't seem to change my player's travel speed. No matter which pace I click, it will travel at 1 mile per hour.

[MrDDT]

Been searching for a while for an answer but couldn't find anything. I can't seem to change my player's travel speed. No matter which pace I click, it will travel at 1 mile per hour.

Traveled is how far they've already gone (normally start at 0)
Distance is how far the total trip is.
Remaining is just the difference between those 2.
Speed is how fast you want them to travel per time (hour or day)
Travel by, is the blocks of time you want to set when you click the button to travel.
Travel has 4 buttons and a toggle.
First button will travel at the speed/time you set, if you set 50 miles/hour and you set travel by, 2 hours, it will go 100 miles in 2 hours.
I think the other 3 buttons don't work correctly.
The toggle will give you a chance to roll on the table.
Chances are just that chances of encounters.

[charros]

Hello,

I just wanted to say that after this recent update that my game started getting slower. I took off each extension that I have and went down the row 1 by 1. I got to the Clock Adjuster Extension my first die would roll normal but when I rolled that first damage die then asked to choose the apply all yes button there will be a long break from the dice rolling to the results showing on the chat. I went through all the extensions individually and they worked fine, then put all them back on including Clock Adjuster and the lag still happened on Dice Rolls only and then I took only Clock Adjuster off as one of my extensions and it worked very smoothly.

I wanted to alert you about this because I love using your extension. I want the players to travel all over the Sword Coast and using your traveling system will help greatly! Please look into this and help me bring back one of my favorite Extensions!

[estrolof]

I have seen the same. Wish I could narrow it down further.

[Blackwolfe]

I have seen the same. Wish I could narrow it down further.

Yep. Game has been lagging and we're on a direct connection lan. Dropped clock adjuster and lag is no more.

[TheButterdragon]

Is there a way to make the Clock Adjuster use an alternative encounter table rather than one only determined by speed and non-combat? I'm running AD&D 2e and it'd be really helpful to have it output random encounters based on where I have the players.

[Arkaerial]

I found if I went in the options and made sure that "Action Logging", "Chat Logging" were disabled and "Time Manager Rounds Mode" was set to simple that all my freezing disappeared.

I had the same issue. general dice dropped in the chat window or dice tower caused the error. This was pretty severe due to the amount of triggers.

There’s currently an issue with forge updating it seems, so I’ve reverted to an older build to hopefully reduce the error of general rolling use until the new version can be set as the live build. Sorry for the inconvenience. You may need to delete the item from your extensions folder.

Hi,

Nice extension.

Is it possible to add the value 60 in the "Round Lenght in seconds", please?

[ScribblingRambler]

Hello.
I have issues in my Pathfinder games (any edition) with (for me) the key feature of these extensions, tracking the duration of effects.
I've been using an old bmos version for a long time due to these problems, but the recent update has eliminated the windows for adjusting time.
With the Forge versions, I get opposite problems. The main version completely decrements the remaining time of an effect (EX a 1 minute time adjustment will finish a multiple hour effect). On the other hand, the "Just the Clock Adjuster" version does not decrement the duration at all. I have tried both versions in multiple campaigns, including as the only extension, with the same results.

[ScribblingRambler]

The above issue was addressed on Discord. it only happens when using the "Add" time button. It works fine with double-click on the number.

[Arnagus]

Weather Checking: - A Checkmark on the panel will enable "Weather Checking". While enabled, when double-clicking the "addhour", "addday", "addmonth", addyear", "longrest", "shortrest"(5e only), "adv6AM", "adv12PM", "adv6PM", "adv12AM" buttons, it will also attempt to roll on the tables "Weather Wind", "Weather Temperature", and "Weather Precipitation".

I really love the extension as it make time keeping easy. It now also works with Mattekure's Timer (see here (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?73977-Timer&p=713053#post713053)) to progress time while the timer is running.
However - I realized that the weather rolls are occurring way too often. I think they should rather occur once per day, e.g. when date is changing, not when a button to add arbitrary hours/days/rest/advance is pressed. To do so, I suggest to move the TimeManager.checkWeather() call within each button's onDoubleClick() trigger (in desktop/desktop_panels.xml file) into the check for the next day:


if DB.getValue(TimeManager.CAL_CHK_DAY) == nil or DB.getValue(TimeManager.CAL_CHK_DAY) ~= DB.getValue(TimeManager.CAL_CUR_DAY) then
TimeManager.outputDate();
TimeManager.checkWeather();
DB.setValue(TimeManager.CAL_CHK_DAY, "number", DB.getValue(TimeManager.CAL_CUR_DAY));
end

Unfortunately, having this check in the TimeManager.checkWeather() itself does not work as it is sometimes called before the CAL_CHK_DAY update, sometimes after.
The new call of the function from the new location can even be enhanced with an option to only execute if set (new behavior) or in the old location if unset (old behavior/default).
Let me know if you are interested to add this into your code.

The weather where I live can change multiple times per day. I've even seen it go from the 30s at 6am to the 90s by 3pm. Storms that pass over are typically huge and cover vast areas with a choppy border, so you can have a downpour one minute and then 5 minutes later the sun is shining, only to have a tornado rip through another 5 minutes later. In the winter, we can have snow one hour then rain the next, and flip flop for the remainder of the day. "If you don't like the weather here, wait a couple of minutes, it will change." lol

Just started using this extension and it's great for a sandbox adventure with lots of moving parts! Two requests:
1) Can we have an "unlock" function for the Events Manager so we can move it where we want on the screen? I have other stuff going on in the upper left.
2) Is it possible to export Events when creating a module?

Thanks

You can click drag the Events box wherever you like. It is not locked. At least when I open it as a DM. Not sure about players. If the position is locked for players (or even available to players) I will repost after our game tonight.

EDIT: I forgot to ask my players about it, lol. Haven't gotten around to using this feature, but definitely want to use it at some point for ongoing sandbox games.

[YAKO SOMEDAKY]

I don't know if it will ever be possible, but it would be interesting to have complete integration between Timer and Clock Adjuster, for the following reason:
When activating it, a clock starts running and the time elapsed would have effects (magic and lighting, alerts such as sleeping or eating would be announced and extinguished automatically).

You might want to check my Integration (https://forge.fantasygrounds.com/shop/items/1702/view). Perhaps it fits your needs

[YAKO SOMEDAKY]

It worked perfectly, thanks for the tip!

Greetings, I've been making some changes to your extension, some fusions with others, but as I don't know how to program and just tinker, I would like to know if you could help me make the rest function compatible with rolemaster classic, if you need this set of rules I can pass it on to you.

Does advancing time with this extension cause combat tracker effect durations to tick down? Example: If someone has a 24 hour spell effect duration and I advance time 24 hours, will the effect disappear on the combat tracker?

Yea. That’s one of the main uses of it.

Does anyone use this in conjunction with Combat Groups? Is there any way for Clock Adjuster to NOT process time passing for actors not currently shown in the CT (in a hidden Combat Group)?

Same issue here but i did not find a solution either.

Love this extension. Any chance we can get a button to push the current date and time to chat? I know that you can do this by opening the Calendar, but it would be nice to have a single button on this extension's interface.

[YAKO SOMEDAKY]

Something like this?

Lovely! Thank you!

Suggestion:
The various tables used. Would it be possible to change this so instead of having to rename tables you can instead drag and drop a table onto a field and have that field store a link to the table. This would make this easier to use as you can quickly change the table without having to rename things. It would also be nice if there was something that said what type of terrain was being traveled in and have a similar link to a table for each terrain type.
Something to show a terrain route, ie so many m/km of one terrain and then the distance for the next, this would allow for it to automate the encounter roles, and travel time.

Hello, I havent been able to use some of the clock adjuster features for a while and I thought maybe it would be fixed however I am wondering if I broke it with a settings change or an incompatibility somehow.

Im using FGU and 5e ruleset. but my adjuster looks like this:63389

What version you got?

[YAKO SOMEDAKY]

I made some minor adjustments, hopefully it's working now.

Works now thanks so much!!!

Hi there - I've only just started to use this extension but I'm sure it'll come in very handy... One thing I've noticed though is that the Calendar widget thingy is no longer displaying AM/PM next to the time. I figured it must be the theme I was using, tried a bunch of different ones and got the same result. Then I noticed the screenshots above didn't have them anymore either. Would be "nice to have" that back in the widget again - many thanks!

Would it be possible for 'Just The Clock Adjuster' to still expire effects when it's used to move time forward by minute or hourly increments?

If you click for a short or long rest it does move game time forward and expires effects. But when double clicking to move time forward by my defined minutes/hours it seems to be moving calendar time forward but not actual game time, if that makes any sense, so doesn't count down or expire any effects?

The full Clock extension is working fine in this respect, but I'd much rather use JTCA, as I don't use any of the other bells and whistles and i like to keep things as streamlined as possible, especially as I use a lot of extensions (this was tested with only this extension active though).

Cheers,

Simon

*** Updated with the fix in the code below ***

I have traced down a race condition with SilentRuin's GAL (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?59341-Generic-Actions-extension-for-Fantasy-Grounds-Unity-5E-ruleset) and the processing of "long term" effects in the advanceRoundsOnTimeChanged function in scripts/longtermeffects.lua.

If you adjust the clock by one minute and trigger the expiration (deletion) of a spell with associated NPC token from its GAL layer, above function still tries to list this token (on CT_LIST) and its effects - which will fail with an error as the token is gone.

Following lines in blue must be added in the function - perhaps someone maintaining the source code can please update it.


function advanceRoundsOnTimeChanged(nRounds)
if nRounds and nRounds > 0 then
for _,nodeCT in pairs(DB.getChildren(CombatManager.CT_LIST)) do
if type(nodeCT) ~= "error" then
for _,nodeEffect in pairs(DB.getChildren(nodeCT, 'effects')) do
local nActive = DB.getValue(nodeEffect, 'isactive', 0);
if nActive ~= 0 then
local nodeActor = nodeEffect.getChild('...');
local nDuration = DB.getValue(nodeEffect, 'duration');
local bHasDuration = (nDuration and nDuration ~= 0);
if bHasDuration and (nDuration <= nRounds) then
EffectManager.expireEffect(nodeActor, nodeEffect);
elseif bHasDuration then
DB.setValue(nodeEffect, 'duration', 'number', nDuration - nRounds);
end
end
end
end
end

return true;
end
end

Hey there! Just downloaded your version of the extension to update mine, and I've come across an issue with the weather checker. Has the function been removed? This version causes an error message to pop up.

[YAKO SOMEDAKY]

I will take a look soon.

[metaldm007]

I will take a look soon.

Another issue I ran into (that I also had with the Forge version) is that traveling by normal/slow/fast with encounter chance only goes at 2 miles per hour, even though the options are set to go with the 5e travel speeds (3/2/4 respectively).

[YAKO SOMEDAKY]

It is worth remembering that the clock Adjuster in this topic is different from the one I created.

[miked2681]

YAKO SOMEDAKY, may I ask what the difference is between this extension and the one you have posted on the Forge? I was searching for extensions for Savage Worlds and came across your SW - Package listing on the Forge, but it doesn't give a very in-depth description, or any screenshots.
