How to modify MET in persistance file?

[TelluriumCrystal]

Title really says it all. Couldn't find anything on this using a forum search (though my forum searching skills suck, so I might have missed something). Every time I change the value to 0, it doesn't effect the in-game mission elapsed time. Am I missing another value I must modify, or is it just not possible?

Here's what I'm changing to 0 (bold):

Anyone? Or will I have to move this to the modding section so smarter people will look at it?

Change lct to the current UT value. (UT can be found just under FLIGHTSTATE, before any craft or even crew)

What does this do? Will that force it to set said craft's MET to 0? Or should I set lct to 0?

Actually, what does lct stand for...

I assume UT = Universal Time.

Edit: That worked, but I'd still like to know what lct stands for.

LaunCh Time, maybe? In general, a craft's met and lct will add up to UT.

That makes sense. I wonder why the craft has to know its launch time though...

Anyway, thanks for your help!
