Title: Clocks
Post by: Nr_RaVeN on September 25, 2011, 09:43:38 PM
I wish that we could program the clocks in the AirCraft or tower to actually keep real time for our specific time zone... Or I could buy a clock for the wall but Id like it in my AC better... :D

The arena clock is set to the arena time. Perhaps we could add a 2nd clock with our local time.

So he can tell what time it's really is. Why else would you need a clock?  ;)

its the brainless squeakers like you that really make me wanna bash my head in.
how about i explain this "round thingy" clock to you.

big hand = minutes

little hand = hours

60 little markings = minutes

12 bigger markings = hour

is that so complicated?

skorpion, relax, take a deep breath and count to 10. olds442/cutlas may have been trying to be funny, as in  :lol  or  :rofl

i could be wrong but meh, it's a small fail compared to other things he's posted.

i have 2 watches, 2 cell phones, the coffee pot, stove and microwave have clocks and the screen saver on my other computer shows the time...it's still easier to just look at the dash clock while flying.  :D

+1.

I want a pocket watch too that my pilot can pull out to look at any time.

It has to be cranked every so hours, for maximum realism.

How will that help you if the arena you're in has time running different from 1x? If you really want an in-game clock, download PlayClaw and use the time overlay.

As for the wish, yes, what harm could it do? It's the age of technology, why not use it instead of having to turn my back.  :aok (I'm cereal by the way).

I always felt having the real time would be nice option. Maybe an option?

How about a clock in the plane or GV to be synced with the clock in the tower?? Something like on the clipboard to show current arena time??

Almost every plane already has one in the cockpit.

I would rather have my beer's liquid content projected on the screen so I don't have to look down.

You already got it, your the pilot in the cockpit.  Look down at your wrist, the one with the wrist watch on it.
