TimeElapsed
« on: March 22, 2006, 02:36:49 AM »
Is anybody using the TimeElapsed serverinfo cvar for anything?  I think it would make more sense to replace it with a TimeLeft cvar that reads in a min:sec format, so instead of saying TimeElapsed 30.0, it would say TimeLeft 19:30 (assuming the timelimit was 20 minutes).

Makes sense. While we're talking about serverinfo cvars, is there a 'build' one? I don't see it in your fancy server browser...

No, but I can set the build cvar to be a serverinfo value easily enough.

I currently do use this serverinfo cvar, and just set my own "timeleft" feature by setting a variable to "20 - TimeElapsed", as it only displays my server's info, which is always set to 20 minutes. Changing that would be easy, and the TimeLeft would be better to handle different server's infos.

Does that actually work? Could you explain HOW exactly it works? (Or what you have to do to make it work?)

Well, I've already changed it.  Only problem with 20 - TimeElapsed is that overtime might come into play.
