# 🕒 boti_timer — Global Countdown / Count-Up Timer (v0.1.0) A lightweight, fully-vanilla Minecraft **timer datapack** that displays a running timer on the **actionbar**. Designed for operators who need a simple, server-side stopwatch or countdown for events, speedruns, or minigames. --- ## ✨ Features - ⏱️ Count **up** or **down** (configurable) - 🎨 Selectable display colors (gold, yellow, purple, green, aqua, red, gray) - 🧠 Built entirely with **functions and scoreboards** - ⚙️ Operator-controlled start/stop/toggle functions - 🔔 Real-time **actionbar display** (`HH:MM:SS`) - 🧩 Works in **vanilla**, **Paper**, **Fabric**, or **Forge** servers — no mods required --- ## 🧭 Installation 1. Place the `boti_timer` folder (zipped or unzipped) into your world’s `datapacks/` directory. 2. Run `/reload` in-game. --- ## ⚙️ Initialization The timer is initialised with the command `/function boti_timer:init` (see below). This will: - Create required scoreboard objectives, - Set defaults: - mode is set to count up - display colour is set to yellow - the timer is made visible and will displays 00:00:00 - Start a repeating schedule every second. --- ## ⚙️ Usage ### All Modes The timer is controlled by typing commands into the chat or the server console. Vanilla behaviour is, that only server operators are allowed to use the `/function` command so other players are not able to start/pause etc. the timer. | Action | Command | |-----------|--------------| | initialise the timer | `/function boti_timer:init` | | start the timer | `/function boti_timer:start` | | pause the timer | `/function boti_timer:pause` | | reset the timer | `/function boti_timer:reset` | | resume the timer | `/function boti_timer:resume` | ### Countdown Mode The countdown mode comes with 4 presets, for 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes and 1 hour respectively. It can also be used with a custom period of time, which needs to be specified in seconds. | Action | Command | |-----------|--------------| | initialise the timer | `/function boti_timer:settings/preset/5m` | | start the timer | `/function boti_timer:settings/preset/15m` | | pause the timer | `/function boti_timer:settings/preset/30m` | | reset the timer | `/function boti_timer:settings/preset/1h` | | resume the timer | `/function boti_timer:resume` | When using the preset countdowns the timer has to be started manually by issuing the following command: `/function boti_timer:start` When a different amount of time for the countdown timer is required, this can be done by issuing the comand `/function boti_timer:settings/mode/countdown {secs:nnnn}` where nnnn is the number of seconds required. If the countdown timer is used this way, **it will start immediately**. In the following example the countdown timer will run for 90 minutes: - `/function boti_timer:settings/mode/countdown {secs:5400}` > **Note: This will start the countdown immediately.** ## 🎮 Operator Controls | Function | Description | |-----------|--------------| | `/function boti_timer:display/enable` | Show timer on actionbar | | `/function boti_timer:display/disable` | Hide timer display | | `/function boti_timer:display/toggle` | Toggle show/hide | | `/function boti_timer:settings/mode/countup` | Switch to count-up mode | | `/function boti_timer:settings/mode/countdown {secs:3600}` | Switch to countdown mode and set seconds (1 h = 3600) | > **Note:** Only ops can run these functions. --- ## 🖌️ Customization ### Colours The timer colour can be one of 7 colours and it defaults to yellow.
