as time goes by...

So I did a check recently. You can spend all night gambling, but because it's considered a menumode, gametime doesn't pass. You can be up all night playing blackjack, but when you finally step away from the table, you'll be no hungrier, thirstier, or more tired than you were when you started, and the sun won't be any closer to coming up. I think I can fix that by writing a script that increments gamehour and gamedayspassed while you're in the gambling menu (and gameyear, gamemonth, and gameday too if necessary) but at the moment there isn't a menumode code for gambling. There are two ways I can handle it, by causing time to pass when in certain menus, or by not causing time to pass when in certain menus. I'd prefer to do it the first way, since I'm bound to leave out some important menus if I do it the second. Does anyone know how to determine the new menumode code(s)?

I've got a script working right now that does the time passage thing, but at the moment the only menu it excludes is sleep/wait. I think if I add the console and start menus to the list it should be good to go, but yeah, it'd be nice to know what the new menumode code is.
