Well thanks for your opinion. I'll just wait for someone who is willing to help to reply.

The thing is here that you can't use 31 or 30 or 28 for specific months, or 365, 366 days in a year since you are counting played days and not the actual age of the account (days since the creation of the account)... unless that is what you want...

Yeah I'm wanting it to count even when they are offline, so it shows how old their account is. If there isn't a way of showing months and what not I'll just have to stick with it showing days.

Have you tried in game .show age to see what it displays?

sphere already store the account first/last connection date (<ACCOUNT.FIRSTCONNECTDATE> and <ACCOUNT.LASTCONNECTDATE>), so you must compare these 2 dates and convert it to an "readable" value, which probably the best format will be "X days"

eg: to compare dates 2016/05/10 and 2016/08/10, you must convert both dates into days using the formula: (year * 365) + (month * 30) + days

2016/05/10 = (2016 * 365) + (05 * 30) + 10 = 736000
2016/08/10 = (2016 * 365) + (08 * 30) + 10 = 736090

736090 - 736000 = 90, so the interval between these dates is 90 days

on sphere scripting it will be something like this:

Code:

[FUNCTION GetAccountAge]

return <eval <ConvertToDays <ACCOUNT.LASTCONNECTDATE>> - <ConvertToDays <ACCOUNT.FIRSTCONNECTDATE>>>

[FUNCTION ConvertDateToDays]

ARGS=<EXPLODE : /, <ARGS>>  // this will explode the date "yyyy/mm/dd HH:mm:ss" into "yyyy,mm,dd,HH,mm,ss", making it easy to get values using ARGV[0], ARGV[1], ...

return <eval (<ARGV[0]>*365)+(<ARGV[1]>*30)+<ARGV[2]>>

so with this code you will be able to get the account age using something like "SYSMESSAGE Your account age is: <GetAccountAge> days"
