DarkTimer<\/h2>\n

Clears dropped ground items to help reduce entity lag |  View Changelog<\/p>\n

Server side is supported. You can install this on the server and not need to have it installed on the client.<\/em><\/p>\n

Created by the same authors who made DarkRPG (for a full RPG experience, get the DarkRPG modpack and enjoy quests and rpg gameplay)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Features<\/h2>\n

(Your vanilla experience will be further enhanced thanks to these features) <\/p>\n

Modded servers can sometimes encounter an issue where dropped items do not despawn after 5 minutes. This results in unnecessary server lag due to entities. This simple mod aims to fix that by clearing dropped items every 10 minutes. This can be useful in a heavily modded environment where lots of players have dropped unwanted items on the ground that have not despawned and cause users to suffer entity lag. A warning message is displayed 10 minutes and 1 minute prior to clearing ground items. You can also change the duration of the timer using datapacks found at the GamerPotion support Discord  #files<\/em> section.<\/p>\n
