Hyper Time Manager System v3

Hyper Time Manager System v3 gives you full control over in-game time, allowing seamless synchronization between systems like NPC schedules, day-night cycles, and world events. I designed this system to help developers build immersive, time-aware gameplay mechanics that are both powerful and easy to integrate. It operates on a central time authority stored in the GameState, so all systems — from quests to environment — stay perfectly in sync. This system is also included in our Dynamic Weather & Sky system.

Key Features

• Interactive Time Manipulation
  • Let players skip time by interacting with objects like beds, advancing to specific hours for pacing or immersion
• System Integration
  • Use flexible dispatchers to connect with your own systems (e.g., day-night cycle, NPC routines, environment changes)
• Advanced Time Management
  • Define non-linear timelines, custom time scales, and dynamic schedules for time-based events
• Time Zones
  • Assign unique time zones to regions of your world for added realism or gameplay contrast
• Gamestate Time Authority
  • The core system stores and syncs time centrally in the GameState, so other systems can bind to it and stay consistent
• 100% Blueprint, multiplayer-ready, modular, and fully customizable
