## For Players:
\ndisplay of real-time over the hotbar
\n“`
\n\/scoreboard players set time
\n“`
\n is a placeholder for selector (for example **playername**)
\n: 1 -> on, 0 -> off<\/p>\n

### important:
\nTime of the Server Location (may be different from client)<\/p>\n

## For datapack Creators:
\n### ways to **get** real time:
\n– in scoreboards
\n“`
\n\/scoreboard players get minute time
\n“`
\n(works as well with “second”,”hour”,”day”)
\n– as formated string _10:09:34_
\n“`
\n\/data get entity @n[type=marker,tag=time] data.string
\n\/data get entity @e[type=marker,tag=time,limit=1] data.string (for pre 1.21)
\n“`
\n– as single strings _09_
\n“`
\n\/data get entity @n[type=marker,tag=time] data.minute
\n\/data get entity @e[type=marker,tag=time,limit=1] data.minute (for pre 1.21)
\n“`
\n(works as well with “second”,”hour”)<\/p>\n

### ways to **use** real time:
\n– in execute
\n“`
\nexecute if score minute time matches 30
\n“`
\n(works as well with “second”,”hour”,”day”)
\n– in function tags (file in your datapack)
\n“`
\ndata\/time\/tags\/function\/minute.json
\ndata\/time\/tags\/functions\/minute.json (for pre 1.21)
\n“`
\n(works as well with “second.json”,”hour.json”,”day.json”,”tick.json”)<\/p>\n

### good to know:
\n– tags will start running from “day.json” > “hour.json” > “minute.json” > “second.json” > “tick.json”
\n– This datapack may be not the first loaded. If your datapack loads first, the times will be old
\n– “day” is realtime day counted up from first time the datapack loaded in days only when ticks run -> Server (or world) has to run min. once a day to count up
\n– uses a ticking commandblock at 0 319 1<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
