Detailed Description

I struggle to figure out what time 16 is... ect. Please add a 12 hour clock option for math challenged people like me.

 

Relevant Commands/Items

/time

 

How will it benefit the server?

I'll stop missing things in game because I'll actually understand what time they are.

Could be added as an accessibility change, but if that doesn't happen—or until that happens, here would be an attempt to showcase how to work with a 24-hour format. I'm not sure if showing this could be of any help, or whether it is something else that makes this format harder to work with for you; but I hope this can be of some kind of use:

  • In order to convert 24-hour formats, you generally need to subtract "12" from the time you were given, and consider the difference as "PM".
    • (based on your example, "16" becomes "4 PM".)
  • If the 24-hour format time you're working with is "11" or a number below that, don't subtract anything and consider it as "AM".
  • If your time is "12" in a 24-hour format, then it will be "12 PM" i.e. noon, while "24" (or "0") in a 24-hour format becomes "12 AM" i.e. midnight.

As an American who moved to Europe, trust me, I feel you. Even after years of living there, I’d miss appointments every once in a while because “15:00” would register as “5:00 PM” in my head, even though it’s 3:00 PM. Also, how is San Andreas the only state using 24 hour format in the US? 😔
