Eternal Sky Orbs
by idoadmoni01
Eternal Sky Orbs lets a player change the time of day and the sky in Minecraft through three craftable orbs, one for daylight, one for night and one empty orb that becomes either.
What it does
An Empty Orb gathers energy from sunlight or moonlight. After it has been charged for 10 seconds, it turns into a Sun Orb or a Moon Orb, and using that orb switches the world between day and night at once, with smooth animations meant to keep the change feeling immersive. A Sun Orb suits players who want endless daylight while they build, farm or explore, and a Moon Orb suits players who prefer a calm night for adventuring, fighting mobs or watching the sky.
The mod is a Forge mod for 1.20.1 only. It is server-side only, so players join without installing it and only the server needs it. The mod is not open source and is released under All rights reserved.
