Sorry i did not ask if you needed the numeric values, if you copy and past the JavaScript below into a JavaScript event it will put put the separate values into the scene variables

hour
minutes
day
month
year

if you edit the script you can change them to whatever you like

// Get the current date and time
const now = new Date();

// Break down the time
const hours = now.getHours(); // Get current hour (0-23)
const minutes = now.getMinutes(); // Get current minutes (0-59)

// Break down the date
const day = now.getDate(); // Get current day of the month (1-31)
const month = now.getMonth() + 1; // Get current month (0-11, so we add 1 to make it 1-12)
const year = now.getFullYear(); // Get current year

// Pass the values to GDevelop variables
runtimeScene.getVariables().get(“hour”).setNumber(hours);
runtimeScene.getVariables().get(“minutes”).setNumber(minutes);
runtimeScene.getVariables().get(“day”).setNumber(day);
runtimeScene.getVariables().get(“month”).setNumber(month);
runtimeScene.getVariables().get(“year”).setNumber(year);
