Improved time script

[Patrix87 210]

Hi,

I've modified ExileServer_system_weather_initialize.sqf and the Time class from Exile_Server\config.cpp

The goal was to be able to use a static date or a static time independently and also to allow time zone adjustments.

In the process I've removed useRealTime because it was redundant since useStaticTime is the opposite.

I've also integrated a parameter to set a time shift that can be used with real time to push the night a little later.

New Time Class : 

	class Time
	{

		// Use a static server start time instead of the server UTC time.
		useStaticTime = 0;
		
		// Use a static server start date instead of the server UTC date.
		useStaticDate = 0;
		
		//Time Zone adjustment in hours. Will be applied regardless of previous settings.
		timeZone = -5;
		
		//Time shift adjustment in hours. Will be applied on to of the previous settings. Use it to delay night time.
		timeShift = -4;

		// time in ARMA FORMAT << CONFIG
		// https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/setDate

		staticTime[] = {05,30};
		
		staticDate[] = {2039,06,24};
		
		
	};

The new : ExileServer_system_weather_initialize.sqf

call ExileServer_system_weather_thread_weatherSimulation;
_useStaticTime = getNumber (configFile >> "CfgSettings" >> "Time" >> "useStaticTime");

_dateTime = [];
_startTime = ExileServerStartTime;
_float = 0;

if(_useStaticDate isEqualTo 1)then
{
	_dateTime append _staticDate;
}
else
{
	_dateTime append (_startTime select [0,3]);
};

if(_useStaticTime isEqualTo 1)then
{
	_dateTime append _staticTime;
}
else
{
	_dateTime append (_startTime select [3,2]);
};

//Time ajustement
_dateTime set [3,((_dateTime select 3) + (_timeZone + _timeShift))];

setDate _dateTime;

forceWeatherChange;
_changetime = round(getNumber (configFile >> "CfgSettings" >> "Weather" >> "interval") * 60);
[_changetime, ExileServer_system_weather_thread_weatherSimulation, [], true] call ExileServer_system_thread_addTask;
true

I'm currently using the function overwrite to use this one.

Thank you
