How do I get the time until the next day?

[Ben10Tam (tamzino)]

I want to make a daily quests system that resets everyday and it works however I can’t figure out how to display a timer for it on the client. How would I get the amount of time between now and 00:00 UTC (next day)?

How to know how much time until day ends?

EDIT: You have to explicit zero out the time components of the date. A day is 86400 seconds. Find out the next day in seconds and then refeed the day, month and year into os.time to find out the os.time of the next day. Make sure you also zero out the time values so that the time its referencing is from 00:00 (12:00 AM). The number of seconds left until the next day is os.time subtracted from that value. local tomorrow = os.date("!*t", os.time() + 86400) local tomorrowSeconds = os.time({ yea…

-- current time
local currentTime = os.time(os.date("!*t"))

-- 00:00 of the next day
local nextDayTime = os.time({year=os.date("!*t", currentTime).year, month=os.date("!*t", currentTime).month, day=os.date("!*t", currentTime).day + 1, hour=0, min=0, sec=0})

-- difference
local timeDifference = nextDayTime - currentTime

-- convert to hours, minutes, and seconds
local hours = math.floor(timeDifference / 3600)
local minutes = math.floor((timeDifference % 3600) / 60)
local seconds = math.floor(timeDifference % 60)

print(string.format("Time until next reset: %02d:%02d:%02d", hours, minutes, seconds))
