I've been modding my games since TES 3.

Time Functions

Various functions for calculating time in skyrim. Most use GetCurrentGameTime - Utility as it returns the total game days passed. Making it easier for conversions.
This simple function converts days passed into hours passed. <source="papyrus"> Float Function GetGameHoursPassed() ; Converts the game days passed to game time hours. return Utility.GetCurrentGameTime() * 24 EndFunction </source>
This function does a few mathematical steps before arriving to the result:
1. The days passed is turned into a whole number and divided by 7 with the remainder being the day of the week.
2. The days passed is turned into a fraction of a day and then converted into the hours passed since that day started.
3. Result from Step 2 is added to the result of Step 1.
<source="papyrus"> Float Function GetGameHoursPassedForWeek() ; returns the total hours passed for the current week.

; Get the current time(it's actually how many game days have passed). Float CurrentGameTime = Utility.GetCurrentGameTime()

; Get hours passed since sundas. return (((CurrentGameTime as Int) % 7) + ((CurrentGameTime - CurrentGameTime as int) * 24)) as Float EndFunction </source>
