How could I display the ticker in time format 6:52 instead of 391 sec's.

In JS Id do something like this but.. this aint JS

Code: Show/Hide function convetToTime() {    var _time = 391/60;    var _roundtime = Math.round(100*_time)/100;          var _outputtime = _roundtime.toString().replace(".", ":");        alert(_time + " : "  + _roundtime + " : " +  _outputtime); }

Thanks

This is something I've reused from Catid -

Code: Show/Hide String botInfo::RunningTime2(unsigned int start_time, unsigned int end_time) {     String gt;        uint flagGameTime = end_time- start_time;       gt = getString(flagGameTime / 3600, 10, 2, true);       gt += "h ";       gt += getString((flagGameTime / 60) % 60, 10, 2, true);       gt += "m ";       gt += getString(flagGameTime % 60, 10, 2, true);       gt += "s";    return gt; }

I tried to implement this for hyperspace racing using ctime but it wanted to do everything from the Unix epoch or something and came out weird, so it's not as pretty:

Code: Show/Hide #define TIMEBUFFERSIZE 12 char *timeString(long time, char *buffer) {    int minutes;    int seconds;    int millis;    minutes = (time - (time % 60000)) / 60000;    seconds = ((time - (minutes * 60000)) - ((time - (minutes * 60000)) % 1000)) / 1000;    millis = (time - (minutes * 60000) - (seconds * 1000));    snprintf(buffer, TIMEBUFFERSIZE-1, "%01d:%02d.%03d", minutes, seconds, millis);    buffer[TIMEBUFFERSIZE-1] = 0;    return buffer; }

usage is something like this (not tested)

Code: Show/Hide char formatted[TIMEBUFFERSIZE]; long time = 60000; //1 minute timeString(time, formatted); printf("Time: %s" + formatted);

ok gurus, time to tell me how this could be done better (I think the return is only still in there for legacy code)

I'm no guru but...

Code: Show/Hide int millis; int seconds; int minutes; millis = time % 1000; time /= 1000; seconds = time % 60; minutes = time / 60; ...

?

I just wish I could switch a integer to string and back more easily in C.
In JS you can just toString() a number or even more lame like someinteger+="" and its now a string..


Anyway, Thanks again that code from Catid also makes it easy to trim unneeded digits, so that 3:47 isnt displayed 03:47 etc.

Use Java, it can be compared to Javascript in code syntax (although both are completely different).

with Merv, I simply use the String class that is built in it...

Code: Show/Hide String timestring(long time) { int millis = time % 1000; time /= 1000; int seconds = time % 60; int minutes = time / 60; String s = (String)minutes + ":" + (String)seconds; return s; }

String s = (String)minutes, I frogot about that... lol
