A simple tool which automatically keeps OMSI 2's in-game time in sync with either the system time or Bus Company Simulator virtual company's time. Optionally you can manually sync the in-game time by either pressing a hotkey or the button on the UI.
By using this tool it's no longer necessary to manually adjust the OMSI in-game time, typically after every tour or so, due to the game usually lagging periodically and therefore the in-game time drifts from either the system's actual time or virtual bus company's actual time.

Important: This tool modifies parts of the memory of OMSI.exe. It's strongly recommended that you close any games which have anti-cheat detection prior to running this tool as this activity might be falsely flagged as a cheat/hack by one or more of the various anti-cheat solutions out there.
This program will also likely need to be 'run as administrator' due to the memory editing it will perform on the 'Omsi.exe' process.
- .NET Framework 4.7.2 Runtime (https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet-framework/net472)
- Memory.dll (https://github.com/erfg12/memory.dll/) - Included with the releases
- System.Security.Principal.Windows (https://www.nuget.org/packages/System.Security.Principal.Windows/) - Included with the releases
- Download the latest release from here
- Extract the ZIP file to somewhere convenient
- Run 'OMSI Time Sync.exe'
- Configure as appropriate via the UI
- Run OMSI or Bus Company Simulator and continue as usual
Note: When trying to run the EXE file you may find that Windows has blocked it, due to being overly sensitive. It presumably doesn't trust the memory editing that's going on. In order to get around this problem just right click the EXE file, go to 'properties' and then check 'unblock' and press 'OK'. You should now be able to run the EXE file.
Note: If you're in a virtual company in Bus Company Simulator then please make sure you set the correct 'OMSI Time Offset' for that virtual company's timezone so that the OMSI in-game time is correct when it's being synced.
