Datetime conversion

This script converts datetimes (for example, from channel histories) into the corresponding date and time from the in-game calendar:

Trigger:

(\d+) (\w+) (\d+) (\d+):(\d+)

Script:

inyear = matches[2]
inmonnm = matches[3]
inday = matches[4]
inhr = matches[5]-3 -- This includes a manual offset for the difference between the system time in EST and my local time in PST.
inmin = matches[6]
if inmonnm == "Jan" then inmon = 1 end
if inmonnm == "Feb" then inmon = 2 end
if inmonnm == "Mar" then inmon = 3 end
if inmonnm == "Apr" then inmon = 4 end
if inmonnm == "May" then inmon = 5 end
if inmonnm == "Jun" then inmon = 6 end
if inmonnm == "Jul" then inmon = 7 end
if inmonnm == "Aug" then inmon = 8 end
if inmonnm == "Sep" then inmon = 9 end
if inmonnm == "Oct" then inmon = 10 end
if inmonnm == "Nov" then inmon = 11 end
if inmonnm == "Dec" then inmon = 12 end
timestamp = os.time{day=inday, year=inyear, month=inmon, hour=inhr, min=inmin}
year = math.floor(timestamp/16200000)+480
month = math.floor(timestamp/1620000)%10+1
day = math.floor(timestamp/54000)%30+1
hour = math.floor(timestamp/1800)%30
hour = string.format("%02i",hour)
minute = math.floor(timestamp/30)%60
minute = string.format("%02i",minute)
selectCaptureGroup(2)
replace(year)
selectCaptureGroup(3)
replace(month)
selectCaptureGroup(4)

• This script changes the in-game dates from the events history to regular-world dates:
