Calendar with Bank Holidays

Unity Engine
1

Hello Folks,

I’m using DateTime in my game and start the game in 1980.
I have daily Tasks triggering at specific time of day, but I want to skip these tasks if the day in-game is a bank Holiday, like Christmas or Easter or New Years day.

Of course I could check if DateTime.day == 1 && DateTime.month == 1 and so on but I thought of a List, array or something else going like

if(DateTime != Holiday)

I’m not aware of any function telling if a specific day is a holiday, so I’m open to any suggestion

For which country?
For which culture?

.NET isn’t wikipedia.

Western Countries. The script can always be set to the wanted country or culture, so why does it matter in the end ?

4

Because holiday plans in some countries change more often than .net standard. (but civilizations rise and fall in time Unity’s mono changes .Net version :))
Just draw holiday dates from some external source.

There aren’t that many “bank holidays” I would just hard code them if I were you.

Well, Easter is fun – you can look that one up :wink: lol

  • Did that for a game w/ my friend… For a holiday theme.

Well, something like this could probably help. But if I would be you, I would reconsider implementing such a feature, I think it isn’t worth the effort.
