Advanced Time System

The Advanced Time System (ATS) is a comprehensive Unreal Engine asset designed to bring unparalleled realism and depth to your projects through sophisticated time and time-based events. Ideal for game developers looking to implement dynamic day-night cycles, seasonal changes, and time-based events without the complexity of starting from scratch.

Example usages:

• Spawn monsters at night and despawn in the daytime, like Creepers and Zombies in Minecraft.
• Implement natural disasters, such as volcanoes, with a % chance of occurring every day/month/year.
• Implement raids or other time-based events with probability and specific time of occurring, such as day/night, a specific day of the week, every day, every month, every minute, every second, every year, specific time (e.g. 21:37)

Key Features:

• Dynamic Time Control: Easily manipulate time within your game, adjusting the flow from real-time to any speed you desire with the Clock Speed Multiplier.
• Day and Night Cycle Management: Define the start hours for your game's day and night cycles. (The system itself doesn't support light manipulation, such as moving your directional light for visual effects of day/night)
• Event Handling: Utilize the robust event system to trigger actions based on seconds, minutes, hours, days, and even specific times. Support for daily, monthly, and yearly events lets you create complex narratives or environmental changes.
• Debugging Tools: Built-in debugging options to display current time details, helping you fine-tune your game's temporal mechanics.
• Extensive Time Functions: From getting the current millisecond to determining the day of the year or the name of the current day, Advanced Time System offers a wide range of time-related functions for detailed game logic and environment changes.
• Documentation: This asset comes with detailed documentation to guide you through setup, customization, and advanced usage. Whether you're looking to create subtle time-based effects or build a game centered around temporal mechanics, ATS provides the tools you need for creating deeply immersive and dynamic environments.
