simulator clock help

ive been think of this idea for a wile i know sims run on a 4 hour day/night cycle so ive been trying to convert a llGetTimeofDay script to show the sims "time" im incredibly bad at math and not sure how i would convert this script to do that anyone have sugestions?

default
{
    state_entry()
    {
        llSetTimerEvent(1);
    }
    timer()
    {
        float tod = llGetTimeOfDay( );
        integer hours = ((integer)tod / 3600) ;
        integer minutes = ((integer)tod / 60) - (hours * 60);
        llSetText((string) tod + " seconds which is "+(string) hours+"h "+(string) minutes+"m",<1,1,1>,1); 
    }
}

timer()
{
integer seconds = (integer) llGetTimeOfDay( );
seconds = seconds * 6; // SL seconds are 6x faster than RL seconds
integer hours = seconds / 3600;
integer minutes = (seconds % 3600)/60;
string suffix = "am";
if (hours >= 12) suffix = "pm";
llSetText((string)(hours % 12)+":"+(string)minutes+suffix, <1,1,1>, 1);
}

If you want a 24 hour clock, remove the suffix string and the "% 12"

wow... cant belive it was simple cant belive i even passed math class lolthanks for the help

if you want it to also reflect sun-rise/set time in the real world context you'll need a little extra math... in that model sunup is at 3am, and sundown is at 9pm (roughly).

something like..

integer vBooPM;
seconds = llGetTimeOfDay();
if (600 * 12 > seconds){
  seconds = (integer)llSqrt( seconds * 2 ) * 360;
}else{
  vBooPM = TRUE;
  seconds -= (600 * 12);
  seconds = (integer)((seconds / 30)^2 + 2 * seconds);
}

that should scale night faster on the clock than day

EDIT: might help if I calculated seconds instead of hours huh?

Void, couldn't one use llGetSunDirection(), and use the normalized Z vector to do this?

uh huh, but that was more fun =)
