Logic Block Event:
ignore ALL settings except under the "first action" box. click the "always" button (you can set conditionals on another page), select "GPDL Function" from the drop down box below the always button, then click the button next to the box below this, the "..." button. This opens the GDPL environ, and put this in it exactly as typed:

$SET_PARTY_HOURS("01");
$SET_PARTY_DAYS($PLUS ($GET_PARTY_DAYS(), "1"));

This will set the clock @ 1 and advance to the next day. By playing around with these you can set the time/date to whatever you want (remember military time: any time after noon add 12 to it)

$SET_PARTY_DAYS( String )
$SET_PARTY_HOURS( String )
$SET_PARTY_MINUTES( String )

I've not tried this, but seems like a bug
