    Tick-basing a game

    Hey,

    I'm writing a tick-based game ( a game that develops in realtime ). However, the program won't be running 24/7, but I still want it to develop as if that number of hours had gone by when it is launched again. Is there a useful function that can access the computer's internal clock, or something of the sort ? Thanks.
