IPL:cloc
This IPL section is entirely exclusive to GTA: Underground and is used to create so-called tower clocks and digital clocks. Both are features ported from GTA: III and can be seen in Times Square.
Format
The format is as follows:
cloc Center X, Center Y, Center Z, Width, Height, Type, R, G, B, Draw distance, Scale end
Identifier | Description | ||
---|---|---|---|
Center X, Center Y, Center Z | The coordinates defining the center of the clock. | ||
Width, Height | The size of the clock. Negative values can be used to "flip" the clock. | ||
Type | The clock type. | ||
R, G, B | This is the color of the light bulbs when this is a digital clock. If this is a tower clock, this is the color of the two clock needles. | ||
Draw distance | The draw distance of this clock. If the camera is further away than this value, the clock will no longer be visible. | ||
Scale | This is the size of the light bulbs when this is a digital clock. If this is a tower clock, this value is a multiplier for the length of the clock needles (a value of 1.0 is therefore the default value) |

This is a tower clock. Tower clocks are essentially useful if you want to have a functional analog clock on your buildings. | ||

This is a digital clock. It will display the in-game time as well as the current temperature through a number of bulbs. The temperature displayed is calculated from a set of base temperature values. When using server-side weathers you have the ability to set a temperature value and see how it gets displayed by a digital clock once you set it as the current weather type. |
Examples
Here are the lines used in Liberty City.
