    OTE: DCTEdit v0.04 [0]ãã Wondering if anyone knows a quick baja code to subtract a integer valueãfrom the users minutes / seconds online -- not minutes in the timebank? Iãtried the SUB function but it doesn't actually SET the users time to theãvalue after using the SUB function. Any help would be greatly appreciated,ãthanks.ãã Regards,ã Timothy Arnold (Biohazard)ã telnet://biohazmat.ath.cx ãã... "Hugh Jass?

It's notãstored in some variable that you can modify (via Baja or any other method).ãThere is an "anchor" time-stamp (internally, known as 'starttime'), but it'sãnot currently exposed via Baja or JS.ããThere are other ways to deduct time from the user (e.g. the moduser.dat dropãfile). Perhaps if you gave more details about what you're trying to do, weãcould give some pointers.ãã digital man (xbox-live: digitlman)ããSnapple "Real Fact" #28:ãChewing gum while peeling onions will prevent you from crying.ãNorco, CA WX: 65.4øF, 63% humidity, 0 mph NNE wind, 0.00 inches rain/24hrsã---ã þ Synchronet þ Vertrauen þ Home of Synchronet þ [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.netã
