during this loop, you have access to a Hyperbolic Time Chamber from DBZ. For those who don't know what it is, a Hyperbolic Time Chamber (HTC) is a plot device where a character can enter and time passes differently for them -- one day outside of the HTC is equal to one year inside of it.

You begin your looped day outside of the HTC, but can enter the chamber at any point. If you do, when does your time loop restart? Does it restart after a day has passed outside of the chamber moving in Earth's natural flow of time, or does it pass once 24 hours have passed for you personally inside of the chamber, thus making the outside loop much shorter?

Also, to answer the question before it's asked, when the loop resets you're outside of the HTC again, since that's where you were when the loop was established.

Outside of the chamber. The rules are based upon the real world, not an alternate dimension.

At least thats my take on it.

This is correct. For all intents and purposes, the time chamber is another dimension altogether.
