Trigger macro on time stamp interval click

[tak5haka]

Dumb question, but is there a way to trigger a custom macro when the "dawn", "midday", "dusk" or "midnight" buttons are clicked? I currently have a macro that advances the time preset, but would like to save time (and space on my hotbar) by having this trigger when the preset is clicked.

Cheers

Hey!

As of right now there is no way to trigger a macro when those buttons are clicked. Simple calendar does emit a hook with the day changes, though nothing in the data returned by that hook indicates if one of the preset time off day buttons was clicked.

Ah, okay! Follow-up question, is there a way to grab the hour value from the DateTimeChange data? I've tried different ways (eg data.date.hour), but doesn't seem to always work for some reason. Probably because I don't really know what I am doing :)

There is yes.

Hooks.on(SimpleCalendar.Hooks.DateTimeChange, (data) => {
   console.log(data.date.hour);
 });

This code needs to be run before you change the date in Simple Calendar, then when you change the date the browser console will show a line with the current hour.

How are you trying to execute the code?

Brilliant, thanks. I have a macro that is listening for a change to the date or time and then runs some calculations to generate a chat card with information about that day. Seems to be working now, so thanks for your help.
