the game has been out for like 50 years, can't the dwarfs just build an in-game CPU that would let you run a clock program?
how brute force do you want. you can find a crosshair overlay that checks a folder for a .bmp every n seconds and just update the bmp <_<
i can't find it now but there used to be a logo program that I used because every other crosshair overlay was blocked by sea of thieves anticheat
and it could read a folder for a slideshow...
Run in a window so you can periodically glance at your taskbar and go “oh fuck” and then continue playing until it’s 3AM
You've got to install one the old-fashioned way, with a few hundred floodgates and the water physics
Oh my god, I relate to this. Hours vanish when my brain goes into hyperfocus on dwarf corralling
I put my big alarm clock under my monitor sometimes when I need to keep track of time, would recommend
I HAVE one of those but my problem is I've been playing it on my laptop over RDP. I should stop doing that
ooh lol, gotcha. on the topic of RDP, I've been using parsec for remote games and it's been pretty solid! at least on my local net
there is a clock in the game though, it's time for bed once it gets to be around mid-hematite
