# Time Zone
v1.0.6
A **Time Zone** is an area, defined by a `collider`, with its own [**Local Time Scale**](/magic-pig-games/magic-time-local-time-scale/local-time-scale.md). Anything passing through this zone will automatically subscribe to the Local Time Scale, and unsubscribe as they leave the zone.
The blue zone is a Time Zone!
## Create a new `LocalTimeScale` at Runtime
The Time Zone is able to create its own new `LocalTimeScale` object at runtime, with a default starting value that you define.
Check the "*Create new Local Time Scale*" button to enable this, and then set the starting value you'd like.
## Copy an Existing `LocalTimeScale` Scriptable Object
Alternatively, you can choose to use an existing LocalTimeScale Scriptable Object which you've created in your project. At runtime, a new instance of this will be created, with the starting value defined in that object.
This is a good way to utilize `LocalTimeScale` objects with a custom derived class that you've created for your project.
{% hint style="warning" %}
Even when multiple Time Zone objects use the same `LocalTimeScale` Scriptable Object, each will have its own unique instance of the object.
{% endhint %}
## TimeZone Events
There are Unity Events for `OnObjectEnter` and `OnObjectExit` which you can populate in the Inspector. These events pass a `TimeZoneEventData` objcet, which contains the `GameObject` that triggered the event, the `Collider` of that object, and the `Vector3` contactPoint.
## Runtime Information
Viewing the Inspector at runtime will display any Subscribers currently subscribed to this objects `LocalTimeScale`.
You can ping the objects if you'd like to see specifically which object it is, and also remove it from the list -- useful for debugging.
