In-Game Clock

I know that our accounts are synced to the website. This makes me wonder exactly how much we can sync. Would it be possible to add an in-game clock that shows the time in GST, underneath our account information in the upper right corner? (Or anywhere that looks best, really.) This would help with a lot of time confusion, especially when we all live in various time zones.

I understand that a live, ticking clock might be beyond the scope of what can sync, but I'm hoping it could be done.

An interesting idea. Not entirely a necessary feature, but I think it would be convenient if it can be possible.

Aye, not everyone has the privilege of dual screens. Think it might be hard technically, but you never know.

I thought this was suggested a long time ago and Soh said it would've been immensely difficult. I might be remembering wrong though

Since I play windowed, I set my computer clock to show both local time and GST. Again, that might not be an option for everyone but a possibility nonetheless.

Then again everytime I've asked the time IC I've been met with a dozen responses to the second, so I think a lot of people already have their own solution if this idea isn't possible!

I just deduct 6 hours myself. Only issues arise during DST switching periods.
