• Users Time Zone...

    From PalKat@21:4/137 to All on Sunday, May 12, 2019 10:48:29
    I have looked, I have asked a fellow SysOp and I looked some more but I can
    not find anything in Mystic where a user can specify their timezone. Am I missing something?

    It would be nice when visiting other Mystic boards or folks on mine to be
    able to see the current time for their location not that of where the BBS is. Though its fun to see what time it is physically where the BBS is ran, having your current time for the user is helpful I think.

    Typically it is defined as a kludge called TZUTC, the offset of your TZ to UTC (see above)

    that is not something built in to mystic but perhaps a python modd to access would do it as mystic does not have a way to store that information like that.
