Forums Scripts & Popups calculating time

im working on my away script and i almsot got it the way i want

but the problem is i cant use $ctime cause it brings up something that doesnt even make sense 1041600752 and i cant use the (hh:nn:ss) for it cause it doesnt work for $ctime it

ill show you what ive been trying to do

//echo time is $calc(%test4now - $asctime(hh:nn:ss))

and of course when i go away /set %test4now $asctime(hh:nn:ss))

ive tried to use $duration

but the idea is to take the time now %test4now and calculate how long ive been away so the time that i came back represents by $asctime(hh:nn:ss)

im not sure what im doing wrong ive tried this a few different ways but its not coming out in any proper format.

$duration($awaytime) returns the amount of time you have been set as away for on the server, so you can either use that or:

In the set away alias add the command
set %setawayat $ctime
and in the set back alias add the command:
echo -a $duration($calc($ctime - %setawayat))

gerat that worked perfect

If you want your time to show up in 10:48 format, you can use this alias:

Code:

alias phtime {
  if ($1 < 3600) return $asctime($calc($timezone + $1),n:ss)
  elseif ($1 < 86400) return $asctime($calc($timezone + $1),H:nn:ss)
  else return $+($int($calc($1 /86400)),$asctime($calc($timezone + $1),:HH:nn:ss))
}

And then use $phtime($awaytime) in your script. The results will come back like this (values in red):
