help coding people, in godot when you:
func _ready():
var time =Time.get_date_dict_from_system()
var day = time["day"]
var month = time["month"]
var year = time["year"]
print ("%s %s,%s" % [month, day, year])
is there a way to display the month as a name instead of a number
I don't think there's a built-in method for that... here's a snippet that should work though:
const MONTH_NAMES := [
"January",
"February",
"March",
"April",
"May",
"June",
"July",
"August",
"September",
"October",
"November",
"December",
]
func convert_month_number_to_string(month: int) -> String:
return MONTH_NAMES[month - 1]
No, it just returned a number, but all i did was copy paste what you wrote into the code, so i might have done something wrong or put it in the wrong spot
I am using v 4.2
I should have given you more details sorry!!!! You should have copy-pasted the code, yes, but then you also change your original code to this (note the commented line with the arrows):
func _ready():
var time =Time.get_date_dict_from_system()
var day = time["day"]
var month = convert_month_number_to_string(time["month"]) # <<<<<
var year = time["year"]
print ("%s %s,%s" % [month, day, year])
then it should work! sorry!!
