Ryu’s Timer

Ryu’s Timer

A simple on-screen timer for Fabric. I made it for challenge videos and speedruns, where you want a timer that looks good on screen and doesn’t reset every time you close the game.

Every world and every server has its own timer. You can leave, play somewhere else, close Minecraft, and when you come back the time is still there.

What it can do

• Shows the time as 42s, 12m 4s, 2h 14m 9s or 3d 4h 12m 9s, with optional milliseconds
• Saves the timer per world and per server, also when the game closes
• You choose when it counts: always (real time, keeps going while you’re offline), only while you’re in the world, or only while you’re actually playing (stops in the pause menu)
• Drag it anywhere on the screen with the mouse (/timer edit), or use one of 9 fixed positions
• Any size, from small to really big
• 28 color presets, including gradients like Fire, Ocean, Aurora and Galaxy, plus Rainbow
• Animated gradients that flow through the numbers, speed is adjustable
• Your own colors: one hex color, or two for a gradient
• Already played a world for weeks? /timer sync world sets the timer to the world’s age, /timer sync playtime to your own playtime
• Client-side only, works in singleplayer and on any server
