Timed Harvest – Auto-Resetting Resource Worlds

Timed Harvest is a server-side Minecraft Fabric mod designed for multiplayer servers that need renewable resource gathering areas. The mod creates separate dimensional worlds (mining, nether, end, etc.) that automatically reset on configurable schedules, ensuring players always have access to fresh resources without affecting the main world.

🗝️ Key Features

• Automatic World Resets: Configure resource worlds to reset every X hours (e.g., weekly mining world, monthly end world).
• Custom Dimensions: Create multiple resource worlds with different world types (overworld, nether, end).
• Unique World Generation: Each world generates with unique seeds – automatic or custom-defined.
• World Borders: Set configurable world borders to limit exploration and improve performance.
• Modern GUI System: Polished, gold/yellow themed interface for both players and admins.
• Resource World Selector (/th): Clean, paginated GUI for players to view and teleport to available resource worlds.
• Admin Dashboard (/th admin): Visual management interface for operators, with confirmation dialogs for all critical actions (delete, reset, teleport, enable/disable, set main, status).
• Confirmation Dialogs: All admin actions now require confirmation via a dedicated GUI, preventing accidental changes.
• Consistent Navigation: Back buttons and navigation always return you to the correct previous screen (e.g., Resource Worlds GUI).
• Permission-Aware: Admin features are only visible to operators (permission level 2+).
• Player Notifications: Warns players before resets with countdown messages (60, 30, 10, 5, 1 minute warnings).
• Easy Teleportation: Simple commands with tab-completion to teleport between worlds.
• Enhanced Create Command: Full world customization with worldType, seed, border, and structure settings.
• Dimension Validation: Prevents invalid dimension names with helpful error messages.
• Auto-Fix & Validation: Automatic config validation and in-game troubleshooting help.
• JSON Configuration: Easy-to-edit configuration file with all options and auto-validation.

⚙️ How It Works

Server administrators configure resource worlds in config/timed-harvest.json, specifying:

• World ID and dimension name
• Reset interval in hours
• World type (minecraft:overworld, minecraft:the_nether, minecraft:the_end)
• Seed (0 for automatic random generation, or custom seed)
• World border diameter in blocks
• Structure generation settings

Players use /timedharvest tp <worldId> to access resource worlds. When the reset timer expires, players are kicked from the world, all world data is deleted, and a fresh world is generated with the configured settings. The main world remains completely untouched.

Note: This ensures sustainable resource gathering on servers while maintaining the integrity of player builds and main world terrain.
