Calculating time

[villr]

The thing that im trying to do and what im gonna have it to is like this, it will be a bot that says like, it was 1day and 3 hours since you last visited here. or it was 5 hours since you last visited here

I have some code i tested but i wasent even sure what i was doing but here it is..

TD2 = tonumber(20130615) 
OD2 = tonumber(20130610) 
hDays = (TD2-OD2) 
totH = hDays*24 
curH = totH/h 
outputChatBox(hDays.." days, "..curH.." hours  "..(totH).." total hours") 

Anyone know how to do it?

I don't really understand what ur doing there, is this your whole code?

[villr]

That was just some test code...

But what i want is to calculate how many days and hours it has passed since the player last entered. But i have no idea about how i'll should calculate it.

You can try with

getTickCount

What i meant with my post was, im going to have an thing in Area51 that will say when you enter, it was 5hours since you last visited here, or, it was 1 day and 5 hours since you last visited here.

The time will be calculated from a data that has been saved as example 2013 06 14 22 10 but im not sure how i should calculate this, i only know how to calculate the days and total hours

Store the tick count from when you last visted somewhere, then make a math to calculate how long it passed since last visit.
