*******************************************************************************}
function PrintTime(reason : String) : String;
var
H,M,S,MS : Word;
begin
  DecodeTime(Now,H,M,S,MS);
  if(StrToInt(H) = 0) then
  Result := (reason + ' ' + ToStr(H) + ':' + ToStr(M) + ':' + ToStr(S));
end;      

This function I reuse a lot. What do you guys think?

Very good mate, but unfortunately we already have TimeRunning like

Writeln(' Time is' + TimeRunning);  

Very nice thou, you could learn about trying to make your own srl functions, even thou they already exisit:P

:O I did not know about the TimeRunning method. Now I feel stupid.

nonono! Don't be. Its good trying to come up with your own functions, infact its a good skill because you won't be relying on other people and you will just try to get things done you know…

Infact, in my clan war fighter, most of my "custom function" was just a rip off one way or another of some SRL functions (which I didn't know about) and just later realized it.

You can also add this to your script:

SetScriptProp(SP_WriteTimeStamp, [true]);

That will print the time automatically before any writeln calls. :)

So call that in the script setup stuff, then after that, every writeln will be time stamped?

Yes.
