The Global Clock
The global clock is an instance of the ClockObject
class.
It gets imported into the global namespace when you import the
direct.directbase.DirectStart
module or create an instance of the
ShowBase
class.
To get the time (in seconds) since the last frame was drawn:
dt = globalClock.getDt()
Another useful function is the frame time (in seconds, since the program started):
frameTime = globalClock.getFrameTime()
