interesting bug

Exult Dev Team:

I've spotted a new bug that shouldn't be too hard to correct.
Let me explain first how I got to notice it:

I'm in Moonshade and I want to do a seance with Mortego. It is now 11.45 am (morning) and after awaking him, Mortego says I should come back after midnight.

A few (game) minutes later, he gets up from bed and heads toward his seance place. Since it is now mid_DAY_ and not mid_NIGHT_, I just assume that clicking on the "seance" keyword won't work anyways.... but it did.

In short, the midday/midnight thing is off. I know it makes no sense, but in the imperial system, the morning hours run like this:
AM
12, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11

and PM:
12, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11

So 12.00 PM is actually MIDDAY, and 12.00 AM is MIDNIGHT.
Crazy, I know but still, the scheduler is off.

Almost latest version of CVS, Linux, Serpent Isle.

The seance is supposed to occur at 12 AM (midnight). If anything, that sounds like a bug in the usecode.

Sounds like the game didn't ask if it was AM or PM.
Hehe.
