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.

Works on the latest 1.4.2 Beta build!

Also question... I only have one of my worlds set to all day is the "1.0" (set by default) the default amount of time for day/night in Minecraft?

That's how the plugin always worked. You cannot go back in time by decreasing the real time, it would break the block updates (including redstone contraptions). Instead, this plugin adds an entire day minus the time to substract, every time it has to correct the time.

99% confident that this is broken for 1.3.1

Ticking at 4766 ticks instead of 20. Removed plugin, works fine. Be a good bloke and hang us an update, will ya?

I modified this plugin a bit, in order to add some features :

The real time is modified instead of the "current time". It fixes the moon phase changes at night, and the huge real time count (it was incremented by almost 20 minutes every 5 seconds).
The time is corrected every tick instead of every 5 seconds. Consequently, the moon/sun moves more smoothly. I tested the bandwidth usage, and I didn't noticed a particular increase. It should be good on that regard.

My computer didn't break during my tests and I didn't notice any bug, but there could be some. The original author can reuse and redistribute the file under his name. The source code is included.

Edit : Modifying the server fulltime was a bad idea, I do not recommend to use the file I sent, it causes problems with the block updates.

I run a server with friends, and I often switch between different worlds. The config for ProperTime is always generated för the world I start when I don't have a config. So if I want to have it set up for all my worlds, I need to delete the config or rename the world inside the config every time I want to change the world.

Is there a way I can do this easier or is this what I have to do every time?

It took me a while until I found it somewhere else. Sadly this plugin is hardly documented... You have to remove (or comment?) all the timespeed* lines for the world you want this mode to be on and write this (example for world "world"):

world: preset: cycle24h
