System Time

System Time is the common time for all bots created on the @MenuBuilderBot constructor. It is also the internal time of your bot created on the constructor. System Time - UTC+3.

The presence of a single system time allows you to synchronize all necessary processes without the possibility of accidentally or mistakenly influencing or changing it. It is used to calculate time in all functions related to working with time.

The time concept of this function is similar to that in Python or PHP. That is, this is some kind of unified, standardized time (which can be expressed in minutes, hours, days, weeks, months or years) intended for relative calculations of time intervals based on time stamps that you yourself write into variables and use to calculate the elapsed or remaining time before or after any event. If this time would be tied to time zones, the time intervals can get lost when the time zone changes in the bot, which can lead to unpredictable - more often unpleasant consequences (for example, slippage of investment terms or the time of receiving bonuses, distortion in the conditions of time-based buttons).

If your bot's time zone does not match System Time, it is possible to set your own time zone.

To display the time specified using the time zone, there are separate System Macros and Functions.

We strongly do NOT recommend that you use the Time Zone specified in the bot in calculations. Use it only to display the result to the user.
