Nice job Mindy! Thanks for adding my ideas.

[EDIT]

Here's a trigger that syncs the system clock with the Warcraft 3 game clock.

function Trig_Real_Time_Actions takes nothing returns nothing
call SetTimeOfDay((I2R(GetTimeHours())) + (I2R(GetTimeMinutes()))/60 +
(I2R(GetTimeSeconds()))/3600)
endfunction
//===========================================================================
 function InitTrig_Real_Time takes nothing returns nothing
  set gg_trg_Real_Time = CreateTrigger( )
  call TriggerRegisterTimerEventPeriodic( gg_trg_Real_Time, 30.00 )
  call TriggerRegisterTimerEventSingle( gg_trg_Real_Time, 0.00 )
  call TriggerAddAction( gg_trg_Real_Time, function Trig_Real_Time_Actions )
  call SetTimeOfDayScale(0.0055)
endfunction

The time is re synced every 30 seconds just in case someone pauses the game thus pausing the WC3 clock.

Note: This will only work in single player.
In a LAN or Bnet game it will cause a desync.

Have fun!

Nice example of how to use the natives in a WarcraftIII map. +REP

So basically you can use this to set the ingame time to the computer's time?

Yes. But it could also be used to make special events at certain dates or times...

Nice feature
