Game following real time
Well a guy at GW told me something about "powermode cherry made", or something, that allows scripts. I wasn't really sure what that was about. Maybe it would be possible with that? If not then i'll just do my game Harvest Moon style.
Game following real time
Hi there.
I am currently creating a game in RM2k3, and I have thought about implementing a system. I'm not sure if this is even possible, but I will ask anyhow. Basically, I would like to make a game that follows the real time of the player. The player would insert the real time and date at the beginning of the game, and it would be the same as real life whenever he played.
For instance:
-The player inputs "November 20th, 8:30 p.m." Consequently, it will be night in the game. Or if the time is in the morning, then it will be lighter outside, etc. I'm not too concerned about extreme realism here, such as changing sunrise/sunset depending on where the player lives, but you get the basic idea.
-If the player quits the game for one month, then the date will change accordingly - without him/her having to play the game.
My question is: Is there anyway to mod the engine, or otherwise patch RM2k3 so that it realizes the date on the player's computer and the date will change according to real life, as well as night/day(assuming the user has the correct time on their computer?)
Thank you for any help!

Probably not(I don't really believe in a god, BTW.)
I suppose such a question sort of negates the possibility of omnipotence?

Are we alone in the universe?
author=Blitzen link=topic=1945.msg37010#msg37010 date=1223674850The direct interaction with life forms foreign to earth does not dictate how we should act towards the probability of their existance. No one on earth actually knows for sure whether or not "aliens" exist, unless you believe that the government is a part of a conspiracy concerning aliens and Area 51.
I repeat my point that for all intensive philosophical and practical purposes that we should consider ourselves alone. To think otherwise is to ignore the scope of practicality associated with actually finding and communicating with another civilization. To be honest, I think the average joe is more likely to meet a ghost than an alien.
Humans do not have to interact with extraterrestrial lifeforms to be aware that they do exist. With technology progressing as it is today, I wouldn't be surprised if life was discovered on another planet in my own lifetime. Why is it ok to assume that we are alone, and ignore the scope of the universe and the large probablity that there are other complex forms of life? There are billions of galaxies. Each galaxy has billions of stars.If only a small percentage of those stars had earth life planets then there would be many, many planets with life on them.
Are we alone in the universe?
No, I don't think that we are alone. The people that tend to think we are alone are the people that believe we are the center of a divine plan, and we are super special because of it. Those same people many years ago supported the geocentric model of the universe, but not as much now. Of course, there are people who think that we are alone for some other reason.
Many scientists will tell you the same thing - the universe is a very vast and seemingly infinite area. It's so large that many people have trouble comprehending it's size, and it's many billions of light years in diameter.
Have we come into contact with any sort of extraterrestrial being? No, we haven't. Scientists are at work with trying to discover lifeforms that may exist on other planets. One thing that scientists do is search for water, or at least the evidence of past existing water on a planet because water is essential for life to exist. Whether or not we ever come into contact with life forms on other planets is not really known. Maybe many years into the future this might be possible, or at least we might even know of their existance sometime.
The thing is that no one can say life exists on other planets and be entirely correct at this point, or at least for as far as humans understand. It's never been discovered, so consequently it hasn't actually been "proven" yet. I believe that one day we will discover organisms somewhere in the universe, and this belief is a perfectly reasonable speculation.

The weird things you do
author=Neok link=topic=2152.msg35891#msg35891 date=1223157076Hahaha. I thought I was the only one that did this! I'll save as soon as I can then quit, like you. I don't know why, either. I suppose I like to reflect back to the intro or something.
Whenever I start a new RPG, I will always seek out the nearest save point, save, and quit. Then I won't touch the game again for like half an hour or more. Doesn't matter what game it is. No special reason for it either.
One weird thing I do concerns how long I take to beat a game. I bought LOZ: Twilight Princess the first day it came out(along with the Wii) and I haven't beat it yet. I will play a game for a little while, take a break for a few months, then play again.
Of course, not ALL games are like this but most of them are.
When i'm playing an RPG, I tend to want to explore every corner and talk to every person. I guess this is the same with all games I play. I just don't like to miss out on something.
Concerning the second thing I mentioned...I bought Lunar: Eternal Blue(PS, it's the complete collection with everything such as the soundtrack, pendant, etc.) and Zack and Wiki(Wii) and I haven't touched either one yet. I'll get to them shortly!
Questions you always wanted to ask other members, but felt too lazy or awkward to do so.

Who downloads porn anymore? Take my method of watching porn to be duplicitous and not get caught.
-Turn the TV off, so you can hear if someone is approaching your room.
-Have headphones so you can hear the porn, but don't put them on all the way so you can still hear if someone is coming.
-Turn the volume down a little bit. Even though you have headphones, you need to be a little bit more alert of being caught.
-If possible, have the PC monitor with it's back facing the door.
-Randomly take off your headphones and listen intently for approachers.
-Keep your browser tabbed, with something normal like youtube or yahoo in the extra tab.
-While watching porn, keep your mouse cursor on the extra tab and be READY to click away if necessary.
-You might want to watch at an angle, so you can keep the corner of your eye on the door.
-When finished, clear your history, files, etc.
Every time a thirteen-year-old tries to download porn of the internet, God kills a hooker.
