ProperTime
ProperTime
On many servers, lag causes the time to pass extremely slow, so this plugin fixes it.
properTime runs in a dedicated thread, so it wont really be affected by lag.
By default this plugin makes sure that the day/night cycle lasts exactly 20 minutes.
If desired you can change this, so that it always runs at half speed, or -10 times as fast, causing the time to go backwards really fast .
This plugin is also compatible with other time changing plugins, however, I advise against using it in combination with time stopping plugins. It also works fine with beds.
Presets
Valid presets are:
ALWAYSDAY: permanent midday
ALWAYSNIGHT: permanent midnight
CYCLE24M: a full day/night cycle lasts 24 minutes, instead of 20min.
CYCLE24H: a full day/night cycle lasts 24 hours
Normally day lasts 10 minutes, dawn + dusk 1.5, and night 7.
If you want your day to last 12 minutes, you should set timespeedDay to 10/12 = 0.833
Also, when freezing time, if you set the time to somewhere during dusk or dawn, the light will flicker for the client. I advise against this.
Features:
Configurable time speeds
Dedicated thread (so lag proof)
Separate configuration for day, night, dawn, dusk
Multiworld support (the plugin that creates the secondary worlds needs to load before properTime)
Permanent day/night
Ability to freeze time.
Troubleshooting
First of all, carefully read all errors, as well as the last few comments on this thread. If that does not fix your problem, try adding "debug" to the top of your config file. That way the plugin will give you a lot of information, some of which may be useful for finding out what is wrong.
World "foo" not found
Make sure your plugins load in the correct order. You can also try to remove or rename your config file, so that it is regenerated with the correct worldnames and syntax.
Every time I start up a server after a long time of not playing I always wonder why this isn't working. It's because my worlds usually have capital letters in them and the plugin generates the configuration file with the world names WITHOUT capitals. An update needs to be made so that either the configuration file is either not case sensitive, or that it generates the list with the proper capitals.
Anyhow, glad to see this plugin still works without any game breaking bugs to this day!
yep... 1.1 version still going strong on 1.86!
what is the usage for this? What are the commands? I loaded it into my server and I don't see a config being generated. I would like to have a 1 hour day/night cycle.
Hey, we have a problem with the plugin. No matter what we set the config to the time keeps getting stuck on 6AM, It just jumps back to 5:55 instantly when it hits that time, but the entire rest of the day works just fine.
Hi, I just had an amazing idea. (At least I think so.)
This plugin still works, but the moon phases changing is really, REALLY annoying. Now that 1.6.2 is out, couldn't you just use the new gamerule "doDaylightCycle" to just turn it off for a specific time, then on for a second, back off etc., to have the same effect but prevent the moon phases from changing? I guess that would be really cool.
If anyone else is doing this (or even andersonhc or mrchasez), thank you so much!
... I really want to use this on my server but how do I set it on a 24 Hour Day/Night Cycle? /CYCLE24H ingame?
Hi, Can you update to the actual bukkit dev please, or I will must delete this plugin in my server... Thanks
(Google Translation) Hi i'm Japanese I'm Sorry suddenly The new as possible ProperTime plug-in It's to correspond to the Minecraft version Do you want
Very tidy plugin, does precisely what it's made for. (and yes, it still works with 1.5.x). Could you please add an option for the delay in the config though? I see you're setting the steps
Would be amazing if this was customizable :)
reporting in! working on 1.52 no errors, 100% works
Reporting in - we would very much like to see this plug alive!
Anyone knows a equal plugin that is kept up to date?
Any chance to see a update? :x I like this plugin! ;(
Tested on Craftbukkit-1.4.7-R1.0
I have a 24h setting, which seems to work as usual an I get NO error messages on the console
I hope the update does arrive. It's a good plugin.
also will it have multiworld support so the time is the same across all worlds or at least would b configurable to be?
It still works fine on our server with CraftBukkit 1.4.5-r0.2 beta.
how soon because im dying to have this plugin back on my server againl
An update will happen soon people.
@Firedroide
Yes happening to me too. Real shame! I will contact the dev and try to update this plugin and keep it working, because i love it ;/
There seems to be a serve bug with 1.4.2-R0.1.
I can't manage to set the time with Essentials or any other plugin anymore.
The same thing happens when players try to sleep.
First, the time appears to be set, but after about 2-5 seconds, the time just gets reset to what it's been before.
And this happens in worlds where I didn't change the config, so this clearly is a bug.
