Yep , you can do it like that or check isCloseToNPC function for make it fully serverside.

Also it sounds interesting , if you want to share you development stage you can open thread about it.

Other idea :

- Modifiy loot time pick up for specific objet and make zone for drop item and it gives you another item or money

void HUDPause::setTime(__int64 utcTime)

View and study the code shown below

void HUDPause::setTime(__int64 utcTime){    const static char* months[12] = {        "January",        "February",        "March",        "April",        "May",        "June",        "July",        "August",        "September",        "October",        "November",        "December"    };    struct tm* tm = _gmtime64(&utcTime);    char date[128];    char time[128];    sprintf(date, "%s %d, %d", gLangMngr.getString(months[tm->tm_mon]), tm->tm_mday, 1900 + tm->tm_year);    sprintf(time, "%02d:%02d", tm->tm_hour, tm->tm_min);    Scaleform::GFx::Value var[2];    var[0].SetString(date);    var[1].SetString(time);    gfxMovie.Invoke("_root.api.setTime", var, 2);}

You can make changes, I believe.

Here is the code for 24 hours in game, only change to real time world.

void ClientGameLogic::SetServerGameTime(int hour, int min) {     //SetServerGameTime(12, 0); will set it to 12     __int64 gameUtcTime = gClientLogic().GetServerGameTime();    struct tm* tm = _gmtime64(&gameUtcTime);    r3d_assert(tm);    gClientLogic().gameStartUtcTime_ -= tm->tm_sec;    gClientLogic().gameStartUtcTime_ -= (tm->tm_min) * 60;    gClientLogic().gameStartUtcTime_ += (hour - tm->tm_hour) * 60 * 60;    gClientLogic().gameStartUtcTime_ += (min) * 60;    gClientLogic().lastShadowCacheReset_ = -1; }
