How do I make it set to a certain time zone?

#1

So I currently have this script.
Which currently tells what time it is for you
But I want it to tell what time it is in lets say EST time.
How would I do this?

while true do


	local TimeInUnix = os.time()
	local Lighting = game:GetService("Lighting")

	local stringToFormat = "%H:%M:%S"

	local result = os.date(stringToFormat, TimeInUnix)

	Lighting.TimeOfDay = result

	wait(1)
end

Thank you

Time zones are based on hours far as I know, it would be best a table of your own time zones like this:

local Timezones = {
	--Hours only
	["CUT"] = 0 --Base time zone
	["EST"] = 5 --My time zone
	["Y"] = 7 --Yukon
}

You can start from here.

You can get the difference between the timezone and UTC with the os.date function.
local function getTimezoneOffset()
local tz = os.date("*t",os.time())
return tz.hour
end

local function getTime(…)
local args = {…}
local tz = getTimezoneOffset()
local dt = os.date("t",os.time()+tz3600)
if args[1] == nil then
return dt
else
return string.format(args[1],dt)
end
end

This will return a table with the current time in the correct timezone. You can pass in a format string to return the time in that format.
