SimpleTimers

by Misom

SimpleTimers puts a clean on-screen timer just above the hotbar, for players who track speedruns and challenges.

FabricClient-side onlyMIT License1.21 – 1.21.11

What it does

Timers are created and coloured through chat, and the display stays visible during play without covering the hotbar. The mod suits solo sessions as well as friends playing together on a server they can join. Players control the timer from chat, so no extra screens are needed to run a challenge. Only the client needs it, so servers run without it. Fabric API is required, and Mod Menu is optional for its config screen. The mod is released under the MIT License, but it is not open source. Builds cover 1.21 – 1.21.11.

Key features

  1. Chat-driven timers

    Timers are made and coloured by typing commands in chat, with no menu to navigate.

  2. Hotbar display

    The on-screen timer sits right above the hotbar and stays out of the way of the game view.

  3. Speedrun tracking

    Elapsed time is kept while playing, which helps with speedruns and timed challenges.

Questions

Does SimpleTimers need Fabric API?

Yes. Fabric API is a required dependency and must be installed alongside SimpleTimers on Fabric 1.21 – 1.21.11.

Do servers need SimpleTimers installed?

No. The mod is client-side only, so a server can run without it and players can still join with it installed.
