TickTally
TickTally counts real in-game time across singleplayer and multiplayer worlds, and keeps one total for the player.
What it does
TickTally tracks the time spent actually playing while Minecraft is open, not the time a menu or idle screen stays up. Playtime from singleplayer worlds and multiplayer servers is combined into a single number, so a player can see how much time has gone into the game overall. On the first run the mod scans existing worlds and imports playtime already recorded in Minecraft's own statistics, and worlds are never counted twice.
The tracker is built for a small, honest job: showing how long the player has been in the game. It adds no extra screens, graphs or features beyond that count. Minecraft does not show total playtime on its own, so TickTally fills that gap for anyone who wants to know it. It is a client-side mod, so only the player's own installation needs it, and it works with a Fabric setup.
The mod is published for Fabric only, with 12 release versions covering the 1.21 line up to 1.21.11. The latest file, 1.6.0, is for 1.21.11 and updates automatically through the usual launcher flow. The code is licensed under the MIT License, and the project is not open source.
Key features
Playtime across worlds
Time is recorded for every world and server the player joins, and the results are added into one running total.
Singleplayer and multiplayer combined
Time spent in local worlds and on servers counts toward the same figure, with no separate values to compare.
Automatic tracking
Recording runs in the background while the game is open, so the player does not start or stop anything by hand.
Existing playtime import
On first launch the mod reads the statistics Minecraft already stores for each world and brings them into the total.
