A Matter of Time
================

Have you ever find yourself walking through a dungeon or sitting at the bar and asking yourself: How late is it? Will the sun shine outside or will I see the moons if I go outside? If so, this mod is for you!

The purpose of the mod
----------------------
The mod adds some widgets to the HUD which can display different time related informations:
- The current in game time can be displayed using a symbol and a textual representation
- The current in game date can be displayed using text.
- The real life time and date can be displayed using text.
The mod is highly configurable through the SkyUI Mod Configuration Menu.

Configuration
-------------
The configuration can be reached through the Mod Configuration Menu. It is splitted into three pages: General, Display and Control.

On the general page one can choose which widget to show and how it is displayed e.g. which symbol to use.
The second page (Display) controls the options related to the arrangement, scale and transparency of the widgets.
The third page (Control) lets you choose when and how the widgets are shown.
The last page (Settings) gives you the ability to save and load your settings so you can reuse them.

The control mode defines how the widget is displayed. Right now, there are four ways:
always: The widget is always shown as long as no menu is opened
timed: The widget is shown for a short time (configurable within the MCM option "Display Time") after you hit the configured hotkey
toggle: One uses the configured hotkey to display and hide the widget
periodically: Automatically shows the widget at configurable times like once an hour.

Compatibility
-------------
This mod should be compatible with every other mod. Especially, it is compatible with the Immersive HUD and Frostfall mod.
If you're using the IHUD mod and want the clock to be displayed together with the other HUD elements, just configure this mod to be displayed always.

Requirements
------------
The mod uses the great HUD widget framework of SkyUI. So it won't work without SkyUI. You will need the newest version of SkyUI (5.2SE as of writing this) as well as the newest SKSE64.

I should also mention that the interface of the HUD widget framework may be not stable right now since there is no documentation out there. So if the interface changes in the next SkyUI version, this mod might not work any more (but it should not damage anything). I will adept the new interface as soon as possible if necessary.

If you want to save and load your settings you've made in the MCM you also need FISSES. FISSES is a mod which allows me to store and load settings (or other stuff) to and from text files. FISSES has to be loaded before the A Matter of Time mod!
