Of changing your time zone but when you lauch a ship it still shows it Lith time?.... or whatever time that is?... it should show the time based oon what zone youre in.. could that change be made iri?. i mean not right away but just a though. it already convert when you co to change timezone... it tells you what your current time should be..... and for me thats correct..... but still itd be nice to have the arrival time be displayed occording to what time zone im in......
I bet it would be less confusing to noobs aswell......

Or I could change it to time remaining, which I believe a support forum topic suggested.

Yeah that works..... :D......

edit* but doesnt tha entail a constant uploading of he remaining time... which would take up more RAM or whatever thats called?... which would result in the slowing of the server?.... I mean that would cause more burden on the server than just displaying the persons timezone time wouldnt it?.... allbeit... your idea is still a better suggestion...... I just figured it would be harder to do.... or cause possibly more problemns... rather than simply transporting the correct display time thats allready displayed in Profile time zone to ship I flight screen....

I've heard of a timezone bug, which may be affecting you. Resets offset to some arbitrary amount (from what I've heard). Also, server is running in the Arizona timezone, if that helps any.

Also, I don't have to actually store the updated time each time ;). All I have to do to display a countdown is subtract then from now. (As the now changes, the timer ticks down). (And some other peripheral supporting work, etc, adjusting the display formatting, ensuring the UI is up to spec, etc ;P).
