Real Time
Real Time is a Fabric server mod that ties the in-game clock to the real time of day, so sunrise and sunset follow the local clock.
What it does
Once the server runs Real Time, the world's time of day is synced to real-world time, so daylight in the game lines up with sunrise and sunset where the server is located. Fabric API must be installed alongside it on the server. Only the server needs the mod: players join without installing anything, and the mod is released under the MIT License as open source for 1.20.4 only.
