real time clock falls out of sync

I would think the RTC feature uses the system clock, unlike a physical cart a computer uses its battery as a backup when main power is out, now if your system is set to sync with the internet that may be enough to trigger the games anti-time cheat feature; it is also possible the battery is weak (typically a board will nag you about this, and you will get invalid SSL certificate notices in your browser cause the date is very wrong if the battery is dead after a power outage)
Does this issue happen if your system is not synced to the internet?

I'm assuming that this issue is due to the RTC not being synced to system time because I have no problems in pokeman GSC on gambatte. This issue occurs on every machine.

Which Operating Systems, that does not mean they are all not set to sync with the net (very common default setting) BTW i would not be surprised if GSC lack anti cheating code; i miss DST support in pokemon games

can anyone check if this is still the case with latest commits?

ok so basically, add hooks to ingame RTC so it syncs with real time or system host time instead of in-game runtime (which would desync if emulation is paused), right?
