Old & Easy - Current Time & Day into variables

[AdamSmith]

Hey, this is an easy request.
I had a script about a year and a half ago, which took the current time from your computer and entered it into variables.
I've serached and serached many forums for it, just can't seem to find it anywhere, and if I remember correctly it's only a few lines of code.
I would like current hour into a variable, minutes, and the day.
Please feel free to scream at me if its right in my face somewhere, but I just couldn't seem to find it, scripts have gotten so much more advanced nowadays, just can't seem to find the old basic easy ones.
Many thanks, Adam.

You don't even really need a full script for this. Just put the following lines:

current = Time.now
$game_variables[ 1 ] = current.day
$game_variables[ 2 ] = current.hour
$game_variables[ 3 ] = current.min

into a Script command in the event you want, where 1, 2, and 3 are replaced with the IDs of the variables you want to use.

Edit: current.day will give you day of the month. If you want day of the week, use current.wday
