In the game the clock at the top does not change.

I have added Native time control by tim pattman and entered in things to happen at certain times. This all works, but the clock at the top stays at the same time throughout the game.

How do I make the game time clock reflect the time in the game?

Are you sure there is a clock in the status bar? By default, an Inform 7 game shows the name of room, the score, and the number of turns in the status bar, but not the time of day.

Does your code read something like this?
Code:
When play begins:
   change the right hand status line to "[the time of day]".
