Idle Pause

Idle Pause is a very simplistic datapack that pauses the day-night cycle when there is nobody online on the server. You can now leave your server running and anyone can come back at anytime and the time will be exactly where they left off. There is no setup required, just simply enable the datapack.

Installation

  • In your server directory, open your primary world folder.
    • This is typically called world, the name is defined in the server.properties file.
  • Drag the datapack file into the datapacks folder.
  • In the game type /datapack add "file/Idle_Pause"
  • Success! You can test if this datapack is working by typing /time query daytime a few times when there is nobody online to see if it changes at all.
