Start level at a specific time of day

Development Programming & Scripting Blueprint
1

Hey all,

Basically I have created a blueprint for a day night cycle which works perfectly. It has variables set for example midday is 12 midnight is 0 and all the time in between. It is set so that each day lasts 1 hour. Here us a screenshot of it below.

The problem I am having is that in my matinee editor. The time cycle begins at 0 therefore the game begins at night. Is their anyway for me to keep these settings but use the blueprint to make the game spawn at a certain time.

Also I don’t want to play around with working out all the timings by starting the matinee editor at midday for example.

Any help is much appreciated.

Hi there…

If you create event begin play - and link it to " Set New Time" and enter a value to new time for example a 12 - ( If 24 sec D/N cycle set at 12 in middle of day )
Hope that helps.
