1.18.x Simple HUD Clock

[Fizel]

I had to delete `hudclock.timedialog.json` out of `vintagestorydata/modconfig/` to make this work with 1.16.  I was upgrading from Vintage Story 1.13 and mod version 2.20 I think. I didn't see this posted anywhere but I also didn't read the entire thread. Thought I'd post this here in case it helps anyone else.

Pretty common. Mark of what I consider to be a good mod -- that it does not replace your settings with the new default setting when you update. Fills in the values for the stuff you don't have assigned, but works the same way it used to until you actively go in to change settings.

Yes, if you want to start from scratch, delete everything in modconfig and let the mods regenerate their new defaults. Sometimes it's the only real way of deciding whether its some incompatibility or whatever. Though you might want to save a backup...

Thanks for your info.

Hi ! If I understand correctly, when you select "approaches" for the storms, the UI is just shown when a storm is coming ? Because for me the "storm approaches" is always shown, but without any timer.

 

Edit : whoops, nvm, it seems it was because I tested the mod in exploration, not in survival, sorry !

 Hello, i also made a quick french translation, because the mod wasn't working for me aswell. 
Just add the "fr.json" file to the archive to fix the HUD not showing the good information.

Thanks for the mod o/.

I love this mod.

Absolutely fantastic. This should be brought into base game, it is that good.

 

I have a feature request. Could a "real clock" be an option to add to the display?

Something that shows you the "real world" time (from your own system), so that you can keep track of the real world time while in-game in full-screen.

I have this in other games (eg Star Trek Online), and it is a very helpful feature. It is so easy to lose track of time in games!

Thanks.

 

(Put in whatever font and position you wish - screenshot is to show the concept)

Must... not... break... immersion.  =D

 

Seriously, that would be awesome!  I hardly ever check my secondary monitor for IRL time, leading to ending the game hours after I intended to stop.

For now there are no plans for that. currently i wait until the first stable to check api changes etc.

There where many API changes / reworks / removes. so currently i am low on time to fix all problems - but its not lost

so, stay tuned.

Seconding that although I only just started recently, I find this mode a big quality of life improvement for playing the game. I play in short bursts a lot so it's great to not have to keep checking the C panel to remember what time of day it was when I left off etc. I kind of find myself not wanting to play now haha, especially as I'm playing through my very first winter and it'd be so easy to freeze to death or get stuck out in the dark without the reminder of the time of day.

Isn't that what the sun is for?

Not if you're inside/underground, or have your base next to a honking great big sandstone/bauxite column where you can't see the sun for most of the day unless you jog a few hills away.

But yeah, it's much easier to keep track if you can play through a whole day at a time, but I'm frequently interrupted when playing (and in the middle of moving house) so it's far more practical to be able to glance in the top corner and go, 'Oh yeah, I'm halfway through exploring this cave and I've got a few hours to finish and get home before I freeze to death because the leather for my coat is still curing."

Even if you can see the sun... 
With the basic settings, 24h in the game pass in almost 24min... So saying you can't be surprised by the night in VS is... quite interesting IMO.

update should be ready on monday evening european time

Thank you so much for this mod and taking the time to update it. WE LOVE IT!

@Rhonen Thanks so much for keeping this updated!!

Hello Rhonen,

I am running hudclock-2.8.0 with version 1.17.3 of the game and am experiencing the following display of the temporal storm timer:

So, the countdown timer for the storm always corresponds to the actual time.

Any idea how to fix this?
