CraftingTakesTime
by saltywater
CraftingTakesTime makes crafting take in-game time, so items like wood and stone need a set duration before they finish.
What it does
Crafting an item starts a timer that runs through the in-game day, and the result appears only once the time has passed. A config file sets how much time each crafting material takes, so server owners can tune the pace. The mod was made for modpacks where time is limited, such as hardcore packs that reward planning and resource management.
The mod runs only on the server, so players join without installing anything. Forge and NeoForge builds cover 1.19.2 – 1.20.6, with the latest files for 1.20.6 and 1.20.1, and the code is under All rights reserved.
Key features
Timed crafting
Crafted items such as wood and stone take in-game time to finish instead of appearing at once.
Configurable durations
A config file sets how much time each material needs, so the pace can be adjusted per server.
Pairs with time-skipping mods
It works alongside mods that speed up the day, such as hourglass-style time items, so crafting still takes real effort.

What the author says
A very small mod I made to play in my world, and decided to publish it. (It works very well with mods that accelerate time instead of the vanilla 'snap to daytime' like hourglass mod)
