i would love an extra action under time that gets the local system time and date on your pc

Seems easily added... just need to make sure it works on Mac too, and doesn't break an iOS build...

GetSystemDateTime

using System;

namespace HutongGames.PlayMaker.Actions

{

    [ActionCategory(ActionCategory.Time)]
    [Tooltip("Gets system date and time info and stores it in a string. An optional format string gives you a lot of control over the formatting.")]

    public class GetSystemDateTime : FsmStateAction

    {
        [UIHint(UIHint.Variable)]

        [Tooltip("Store System DateTime as a string.")]

        public FsmString storeString;

        [Tooltip("Optional format string. E.g., MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm")]

        public FsmString format;

        public bool everyFrame;



        public override void Reset()

        {

            storeString = null;

            format = "MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm";

        }

        

        

    public override void OnEnter()

        {

            DoGetTimestring();

            

            if (!everyFrame)

                Finish();

        }

        

        

            public override void OnUpdate()

        {

            DoGetTimestring();

        }

        

        

                void DoGetTimestring()

        {

                        storeString.Value = DateTime.Now.ToString(format.Value);

        }

        

    }

}

Thanks, maart! This will be included in the next update.
