Here are three methods I use in a game. They're in the model that
keeps track of scores etc.
def update_start_time()
self.update_attribute(:start_time, Time.now)
end
def time_since_start
time_since_start = Time.now - self.start_time
end
This part updates the database:
def update_game_duration()
self.update_attribute(:game_duration, time_since_start)
end
Then in the controller, I update the page display of the time as so:
page.replace_html "displayGameTime", :inline => "<%= 'Time: ' + session
[:current_game].time_since_start.to_i.to_s + ' sec' %>"
Converting it to minutes or hours is something I haven't got round to.
