Is there a way to be able for a game to read the time and date using microscript?

 I'm making a game about building a factory, and I want to make it so that the factory will "stay running" while you're not playing the game. I'm planning on doing this by detecting the time and date of the last time the player quit the game and comparing it to the time and date of when the player enters the game again. If anyone knows how to do that, or a better way I could do it, please let me know!

Thanks, I really appreciate it.
