This is actually a lot easier than it seems.

Since we are using Perl, we have the benefits of all that Perl offers, including time & localtime.

If you wanted to define a variable $timestamp to have the current time, you could add this to your quest:

Code:
$timestamp = localtime(time);
Simple as that. Then, you could add it to your output file:

Code:
quest::write("bossdeaths.txt","[$timestamp]: $mname was killed by $name the $class.");
