When are we getting device clock & date and keyboard ??

As the topic says, when are we getting this ? Seems it's not included in 2.0. IMO these 2 features are very crucial to gamemaking.

Cheers !!

Jon !!! You moved it but didn't care to answer ??
 

Definitely not in 2.0. What's the primary use case for time/date?

Timelapse games ?? Unlocking features at specific dates and so on..
And keyboard is pretty useful, don't you think ?

Sorry, I forgot to answer. I'm really swamped with work this week.

It's trivial to do - we just need to come up with a format that works, preferably one that will work on all platforms and not differ.

Np Jon, i know you have alot on your mind right now.
Thanks for the answer..

Cheers !!

While I wouldn't consider the feature to be crucial, it would certainly be nice to have. I can imagine using it for some fun stuff. Dolphin Olympics 2 had 3 different backgrounds depending on your system clock time of day (daytime, dusk, and night). Stuff like that is fun and shows that the developer is putting in extra effort.
