i mean i could just ask for the time and date every time a player boots the game but that would get tedius.

Interesting thought. Arcade hardware would have no concept of “current date and time,” but it sounds like something that could be wedged into the fancy new browser-events extension.

No, because the hardware doesn’t support it. You could create a server and ask it with the websocket extension, but I don’t think that’s worth it.
New browser events sounds cool! Looking forward to this update!

yeah i assumed it wasn’t possible with hardware, but yeah i really hope its a new feature in the new extension that would be so nice!

i never thought about using websocket for it! honestly thats a great idea! (not only for time stuff but for other aspects such as multiplayer ofc)

I’ve never looked at that extension. Seems like you could do a lot of cool stuff, like collect poll responses and stuff. Someone could definitely look at the code though, so you would have to do a lot of security stuff on the other end to make sure no one does bad stuff to your server.

i actually added this to the browser-events extension (currently in beta) a few weeks ago.
here’s an example beta project. as always, I recommend opening that beta link in a different browser or an incognito window
