SERVER-SIDE ONLY: This mod does not need to be installed on the client. Players can join your server with a vanilla client.

Features

Smooth Engine

Unlike basic commands that "skip" ticks, Extended Time uses a precise Accumulator Algorithm. It ensures the smoothest possible sun movement achievable server-side by calculating exact tick additions.

Capabilities

  • Custom Duration: Set day length to any number of minutes.
  • Real-Time Sync: Sync Minecraft sun with your actual server clock.
  • Presets: Switch between 24h, 1h, 12h modes instantly.
  • No Conflicts: Automatically handles doDaylightCycle.
  • Persistent: Settings save automatically.

Mechanics

Vanilla Minecraft runs on a 20-minute cycle. Extended Time decouples game time from tick rate.

Setting Effect
Vanilla 20 minutes cycle.
60 Minutes Time passes 3x slower.
1440 Minutes 24 Hours Real-Time.
Sync Sun position matches local clock.

Requires OP Level 4.
