clock-in
clock-in is a Fabric HUD widget that shows the current time on screen, with a configurable clock that can be placed anywhere on the display.
What it does
A clock widget lets players view the time in the HUD. Its position is set by dragging it, and a config screen opened from the mod menu gives a rebindable key for the drag mode. Size can be scaled up or down, and the clock can be switched off with a single button. Shown in 12-hour or 24-hour format.
Text color is picked with a full RGB picker that also controls opacity, applied separately to the text and the background. An optional background box has adjustable X and Y padding, and text shadow can be toggled. Custom text is supported, and the placeholder time% inserts the current time into any message. Sliders set the position precisely, and double-clicking a slider allows typing an exact value.
clock-in is client-side only, so only the client needs it and servers do not. It is published for Fabric across 10 release versions, 1.21 – 26.3, with files for 26.3 dated 2026-09-27. The code is open source under the Apache License 2.0. Mod Menu is an optional dependency that adds the config screen entry point.
