Real Time Clock Device

The Real Time Clock can be used to connect things that happen in the game to time periods in the real world. Here are some things you can use this for in your game:

• Events in the game can be linked to time periods in the real world, so those things are only available to players during the day or at night.
• You can have the device display as a countdown timer to an event in your game, or it can show the real-world time.
• You can have tasks the player must do within a certain time period, such as feed a pet or grow a plant.
• You can keep players from entering an event until a certain time, with a countdown displaying how much time is left before the event starts.

For help on how to find the Real Time Clock device, see Using Devices.

If you're using multiple copies of a device on an island, it can be useful to rename them. Choosing names that relate to a device's purpose makes it easier to remember what each one does, and easier to find a specific device when using the Event Browser.
