\u2699\ufe0f How it works:<\/p>\n

Vanilla time progression is disabled (doDaylightCycle = false).<\/p>\n

The mod manually advances the world’s time by 0.2222 ticks per server tick, which equals 4.444 ticks per second, instead of the default 20.<\/p>\n

This simulates a much slower day\/night rhythm without affecting gameplay or server performance.<\/p>\n

\u23f1\ufe0f Technical Details:<\/p>\n

The server continues running at 20 ticks per second.<\/p>\n

Only the world’s time (timeOfDay) is modified.<\/p>\n

Entities, redstone, player actions, etc., remain at normal speed.<\/p>\n

A full cycle (24,000 ticks) now takes 5400 seconds = 90 minutes IRL.<\/p>\n

\u2600\ufe0f Day (0\u201312000 ticks): 45 minutes<\/p>\n

\ud83c\udf19 Night (12000\u201324000 ticks): 45 minutes<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

The Datime mod slows down Minecraft’s day\/night cycle to match real-world time. Specifically, it extends one full Minecraft day (normally 20 minutes) to 1 hour and 30 minutes in real life.<\/p>\n
