Is it just me, or is there something wrong with the time in Neverwinter Nights? At one moment its 2 am and on the next its suddenly 6 pm. Its not only when i'm traveling from map to map, but also when i'm, for example, walking from Tyr's temple in Port Llast to Kendracks Barracks.

When in combat time passes very slowly, 1 round = 1 minute. When not, time reverts to turns, 1 turn = 10 minutes. I am not sure what other variations there are but conversations will basically pause time.

I find Blue Streaks example a bit suspicious. The Temple of Tyr and Kendrick's Barracks are so close to each other so the time elapsed shouldn't be so great. Perhaps teleporting from inside the temple to outside of some reason progresses time.

Okay, maybe it wasn't such a good example. Let's see...from the farm in the south area of the Port Llast map to...Ballard's mini-grove. Anyway, i think you get my point.

[/QUOTE]Actually thinking of the engine itself, it would be impossible to do a change from non-combat and combat time without default scripting so I would assume evreything happens in turns lasting at least 10 (if not more) minutes each. Resting does not technically elapse time (it pauses it) but they say it does and use 24hrs as a workaround so if yoiu rest at 3pm, when you finish it will still be 3pm.
