Hi,

How would I convert Hours, Minute and Seconds into 3 variables from System.DateTime.Now ?

Thanks.

You can slit them up using the Now.Day() command on a time variable. similarly just use Now.Hour(), Now.Minute() to get the time.

dt = Date();

var day = dt.Now.Day.ToString();

var month = dt.Now.Month.ToString();

var year = dt.Now.Year.ToString();

I added a switch statement the code to conver the numerical month into a nicly formatted string.

switch(month) {
		case "1":
			formattedMonth = "January";
		break;
		case "2":
			formattedMonth = "Feburary";
		break;
		case "3":
			formattedMonth = "March";
		break;
		case "4":
			formattedMonth = "April";
		break;
		case "5":
			formattedMonth = "May";
		break;
		case "6":
			formattedMonth = "June";
		break;
		case "7":
			formattedMonth = "July";
		break;
		case "8":
			formattedMonth = "August";
		break;
		case "9":
			formattedMonth = "September";
		break;
		case "10":
			formattedMonth = "October";
		break;
		case "11":
			formattedMonth = "November";
		break;
		case "12":
			formattedMonth = "December";
		break;
	}

Found it …

#pragma strict

var dt = Date();


function Update () {

var day = dt.Now.Day.ToString();

var month = dt.Now.Month.ToString();

var year = dt.Now.Year.ToString();

var hours = dt.Now.Hour.ToString();

var minutes = dt.Now.Minute.ToString();

if (parseInt(minutes) < 10) minutes = "0" + minutes;

var seconds = dt.Now.Second.ToString();

if(parseInt(seconds) < 10) seconds = "0" + seconds;

print(hours + " " + minutes + " " + seconds);

}

A quick google using unity 3d and Date() would of worked.
