Optimized Day Counter

Optimized Day Counter is a lightweight, client-side HUD mod that shows the current in-game day and optional 12‑hour clock, letting you track your world’s progress at a glance.

🎬 How It Works

The mod adds a small, unobtrusive HUD element that displays the current world day and, optionally, the time of day in a 12‑hour format. It updates automatically as the world progresses and can be fully customized through a config file.

✨ Features

Day Number Display — Shows “Day X” where X is the current day number based on world time.
Optional 12‑Hour Clock — Displays the current time of day with AM/PM (e.g., “Day 3 | 2 PM” or “Day 3 | 2:30 PM”).
Configurable Anchor Position — Choose from 6 positions: top_left, top_right, bottom_left, bottom_right, center_top, center_bottom.
Pixel‑Perfect Offsets — Fine‑tune the HUD placement with offset_x and offset_y from the selected anchor.
Three Display Modes — Choose between days only, days + hour, or days + hour + minute.
Hot‑Reload Config — Edit the config file while the game is running; changes appear after a short delay (config checks every 500ms).
Info Card — Prints a stylish author and contributor info card on launch.

❓ FAQ

Does this need to be installed on the server?
No. The mod is purely client‑side and reads directly from the local world state. You can safely use it on any server.

How do I configure the HUD?
Open ./config/optimizeddaycounter.txt (created automatically on first launch). Edit the settings, save the file, and the mod will reload the config within a few seconds.

Can I move the HUD to a different corner?
Yes! Set anchor to one of: top_left, top_right, bottom_left, bottom_right, center_top, or center_bottom. Adjust offset_x and offset_y to fine‑tune the position.

Does this mod add any commands, items, or blocks?
No. It’s a simple HUD overlay with no extra mechanics to learn.

I found a bug, where do I report it?
Please report issues on the GitHub issue tracker. Include your Minecraft version, mod loader, and a log file.
