Times in unix are the number of seconds since the epoch, January 1, 1970. The time you are seeing is the epoch adjusted for your timezone. This means ch->logoff is set to 0 when ctime is called.
Look at save.c in fread_char... the last logoff time isn't read into the char_data structure, but instead into a local variable, lastlogoff. I'd guess this is your problem. You'll have to modify it to read into ch->lastlogoff. --Palrich. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Nicholas Hutzell" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, January 17, 2004 2:14 AM Subject: Problem with showing time.... > I am trying to code it into whowas so people can see > when someone was last online.
