CustomDay is a powerful yet lightweight plugin that gives you complete control over your server's day-night cycle. Whether you want to create longer, more dangerous nights for an RPG server, set a permanent daytime for a creative world, or synchronize your server's time with the real world, CustomDay provides a simple and intuitive solution.

Stop being bound by Minecraft's default 20-minute cycle and create the perfect atmosphere for your community!

✨ Core Features

  • ☀️ Custom Day & Night Length: Precisely set the duration of the daytime and nighttime in real-world minutes. Want a 30-minute day and a 15-minute night? No problem!
  • 🌍 Real-Time Synchronization: Sync your server's time to any real-world timezone (e.g., UTC, America/New_York, Europe/London). When it's noon in your chosen timezone, it will be noon in the game!
  • ⚙️ Two Powerful Modes: Easily switch between CUSTOM_DURATION and REAL_TIME_SYNC modes to fit your server's needs.
  • 👆 Intuitive Command Control: Adjust all settings on-the-fly with simple, in-game commands. No need to manually edit the config and restart.
  • 💡 Smart Sync Toggle: Use /customday sync on and /customday sync off to easily enable or disable real-time sync without ever forgetting your configured timezone.
  • 🚀 Admin Friendly: Full tab-completion for all commands, a robust permission system, and a /customday reload command for quick config updates.
