Day Counter

by DasMeisterhafte

Day Counter puts an in-game day, hour, minute and second readout in the action bar above the hotbar, for NeoForge 1.21.4.

NeoForgeClient and serverAll rights reserved1.21.4

What it does

The counter shows how many in-game days have passed, with the hour, minute and second, written as Day 34 15:47 inside square brackets. A new world starts at day 1 rather than day 0, which differs from the F3 menu. The mod counts ticks, so the time command does not change the displayed value, though the counter still follows normal game time.

Key features

  1. Action bar readout

    The day, hour, minute and second appear in the action bar over the hotbar.

  2. Day numbering from 1

    A newly created world begins at day 1, unlike the F3 menu, which starts at day 0.

  3. Tick-based timing

    The count is driven by game ticks, so the time command does not alter what the counter displays.

What the author says

The mod pack adds an custom couter in your actionbar (over your hotbar). The counter counts in ingame days minutes and seconds. So for example the mod could display: Day 34 [15:47]. Every day has 24 Hours (First number in the square brackets) and every hour has 60 minutes (Second number in the square brackets). If…
