What is the DigitalClock?
With this plugin you can create a digital clock from any block material you want! The digital clock is in format HH:mm:ss, it's 5 block high and 26 blocks wide. You can show AM/PM, toggle showing seconds and much more!
Here is tutorial how to use this plugin in programming in your own plugin.

Updating to newer version?
If you update to newer version, it is recommended to backup previus DigitalClock folder from plugins folder and then delete it, the newer version may need to create new folder with changes. Maybe you will have to create all your clocks once again.

I don't think it would work, the clock blocks need to be sent by 'Player.sendBlockChange()' and it needs to be per player. For exemple my friend would see 12h30 in his country and I would see 15h30 in the same exact clock at the same exact time but in another country
@Jamesst20
Maybe I will add that. But the fact is that you are able to create your own addon to DigitalClock. (Just see: https://github.com/PerwinCZ/DigitalClock/wiki/Usage-of-DigitalClock-plugin-in-programming ). You can calculate the minutes to add, and then set them using Clock:
Geolocation per player IP would be really nice. That way, the plugin can determine which timezone has each player and display the proper time for each player :)
In the past I used http://ipinfodb.com/ and it was free and worked well. It still works well today.
Here is a a really dirt class (But works really good) : http://pastie.org/6369210 that gives you everything you need to do that :)
@PerwinCZ
O.o Thanks , I haven´t read the to do list , sorry :p anyway I will be looking forward to it ¡ ;D
This is, by far, the coolest mod ever. not the most useful, but the most cool (it is a nice little addition to have with the chestregen mod though)
@MJcb
Yes it is possible, and it is in my to do list for a long time :D
@Kino876
You are welcome :)
Will be possible to show minecraft time ? if not , would you please try it for the next update ?
Some time ago I thought exactly a plugin like this to my server and now it has come true, I could not believe when I saw this afternoon haha, thank you very much.
@Vman112233
You have 'addingminutes' command, it's enough.
I like the plugin but maybe add a set time command
@SomaKhaos
Maybe I will create some utility for creating own numbers in of any height and any width.
@PerwinCZ
Is it maybe possible to make the clock bigger? maybe just 1 or 2 blocks in width and height?
Hey, i love your plugin. But what i would really like is if it would be able to count down. I own a prison server and i want the people to know when the mine resets, thankx :)
Dobrá práce! :)
@DaThresh
No. Just add minutes to clock time with command.
Can you add timezone support (Central please)
hmm. it work well before. maybe i got a buggy plugin
okay :( but for 4 days you can't create that with redstone
@kjelwyn9
No, i won't add something like that. Maybe you could create that countdown with redstone.
@PerwinCZ like a timer, you can set the timer and it counts down to that time or date you have set sorry for bad english i'm dutch
