Emulate time

[SuuperW]

New config option allows use of emulated clock, rather than taking the time from the host system.

the option needs to be exposed in the qt gui

What about #616?

[SuuperW]

The option is now available in the gui. It has failed the build checks, though. It looks like it is using QT 5.12, but my new code requires version 5.14. This can be solved by either updating to use version 5.14 (I wouldn't know how to do this.) or I can update the code, as I believe there are deprecated functions that can do the same thing.

@WaluigiWare64 that's an old one. This is the same thing, except compatible with the latest version. I've closed the old one.

hm according to the log the Ubuntu x64 build is failing because the QT version on the package manager is too old (https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qdate.html#startOfDay seems to be 5.14+ while the version is 5.12).

[RayyanAnsari]

Yeah I think the best option would be to use some alternative function.
