It's 03:46 PDT, which is a quarter to midnight Linden Time. The moon is up against a night sky. But llGetTimeOfDay() says it's 1:23 LT, nearly an hour after sunrise.
Later...
It's 04:07 PDT, and llGetTimeOfDay says 0:07 LT, as it should.
What happened?

Wiki says.... From: someone Returns a float that is the time in seconds since Second Life server midnight (or since server up-time; whichever is smaller) Maybe the rolling restart made it a bit weird for a while.. Also, IIRC, there's 4 SL day/night cycles per 24 RL hours. Where the moon is doesn't tell you much. |

Also, IIRC, there's 4 SL day/night cycles per 24 RL hours. Where the moon is doesn't tell you much. Sounds like the rolling restart was the reason. The 4-hour day is (in my experience) synchronised to PDT: the SL days are 00:00 to 04:00, 04:00 to 08:00, and so on. There appears to be a precise correspondence between sun/moon position and time of SL day, although I haven't closely examined what it is. I have a clock that displays Linden Time using llGetTimeOfDay, which I might recode to use the sun position. |
