Methods

constructor()

function constructor(ui: Ui): void

Initializes the ticker, queries bar/marker elements, registers a renderer tick callback for updates, and adds an RPC handler for DayCycle.

update()

function update(): void

Calculates the day and night progress ratios, updates the bar's background-position to reflect the cycle position, and triggers a nightfall announcement via AnnouncementOverlay.showAnnouncement() when the remaining day time drops below announcementOffsetMs. The announcedZombies flag is reset at the start of each night phase. Only recalculates every 10th tick.

onDayNightTickUpdate()

function onDayNightTickUpdate(response: { dayEndTick: number, nightEndTick: number, cycleStartTick: number }): void

Handles the DayCycle RPC. Stores the tick data and triggers an update().
