Day And Night? [closed]

Lighting = game.Lighting        -- I've set a static variable to the Lighting service.

while true do                   -- A 'while' loop is used to continuously execute this code block.
    local Time = Lighting:GetMinutesAfterMidnight() -- A local variable is used to refer to the amount of minutes after midnight.
    Lighting:SetMinutesAfterMidnight(Time + 1)  -- I've added 1 minute to the amount of minutes after midnight.
    wait(.1)                        -- A 'wait' is needed in a 'while' loop.
end

The :GetMinutesAfterMidnight method returns a number that tells you the amount of minutes after midnight.

If the 'TimeOfDay' property is set to "16:00:00", then

print(game.Lighting:GetMinutesAfterMidnight())

it will return '960' in the output (as in 960 minutes).

The :SetMinutesAfterMidnight method accepts a number and utilizes it to literally set the minutes after midnight.

game.Lighting:SetMinutesAfterMidnight(840)
print(game.Lighting.TimeOfDay)

The 'TimeOfDay' will return '14:00:00'.

A 'while' loop executes the code continuously.

A static variable is another name for a global variable. It can be accessed from anywhere (in a function, in a 'while' loop, etc).

A local variable can only be accessed in the code block it is in and in that code block only.

EXAMPLE

A = "This is from a static variable"

function Example()
    print(A)
    local A = "This is from a LOCAL variable"
    print(A)
end

print(A)

Example()

print(A)

OUTPUT:

This is from a static variable -- From line 9

This is from a static variable -- From line 4

This is from a LOCAL variable -- From line 6

This is from a static variable -- From line 13

local R=true

function Time()
for i=0,24,1 do
R=false
wait(1)
game.Lighting.TimeOfDay=i
end
R=true
end

while wait(0.1) do
if R==true then
Time()
end
