Create: Departure Timer

by tiangua12

Create: Departure Timer shows a train's departure countdown on a Create Display Link, and it is a small utility for the Create railway addon.

What it does

The mod adds a Departure countdown option to the Display Link. Once a Display Link is connected to a station, it can show either the seconds remaining until a train leaves or the seconds a train has already waited. A configurable threshold from 1 to 120 seconds controls when numbers appear, so the display stays blank outside that window.

The text shown can be customized with a format that uses a seconds placeholder, so a template like the letter s after the number produces a readable label. Trains docked at a station whose schedule contains a Wait X seconds condition are the ones counted. Holding the Departure Timer in hand shows the state of the signal block the player is tracking, and three states are drawn in distinct colors.

Installation needs Create on Forge, and the mod is built for Minecraft 1.20.1 with Create 6.0.8. Create: Departure Timer runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and the source code and issue tracker are public.

Key features

  1. Departure countdown

    A Display Link connected to a station can display the seconds remaining before a train departs or the seconds it has waited.

  2. Adjustable threshold

    A threshold between 1 and 120 seconds limits the display, so only numbers inside that range are shown.

  3. Custom text format

    The display text is set with a format that takes a seconds placeholder, letting players word the label as they prefer.

  4. Signal state colors

    A held timer reports the state of the tracked signal block, with three states drawn in distinct colors.

Questions

Does Create: Departure Timer need Create installed?

Yes. Create is a required dependency, and the mod is built for Create 6.0.8 on Minecraft 1.20.1.

Does the server need Create: Departure Timer?

Yes. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too.

What does the threshold setting control?

It sets the window from 1 to 120 seconds in which the countdown numbers appear, so values outside that range are hidden.
