What it does

Right-clicking a clock in the game shows the current game time and day, so the reading does not depend on any external tool. The mod is client-side only, so only the player using it needs it installed. It requires Fabric API and is published for Fabric across 13 release versions, 1.21 – 26.3, under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, which is not open source.

Key features

  1. Clock readout

    Right-clicking a clock item displays the exact current game time and day in the chat.

  2. Practical time check

    The check takes one click, so a player can confirm the time while playing without leaving the game.

  3. Chat output

    The current day and time are sent to the chat window for the user who clicked.
