PlayerSpeed - Daylight Travel Planner

PlayerSpeed – Daylight Travel Planner is a survival-focused utility plugin that helps players make smart movement decisions based on Minecraft’s accelerated day/night cycle.

Instead of measuring speed in real-world time, PlayerSpeed can scale player movement to Minecraft time, allowing players to understand how far they can realistically travel before the sun goes down.

When used alongside time-display plugins such as Player-Expansion for PlaceholderAPI, PlayerSpeed becomes a powerful planning tool:

• “Do I have enough daylight to reach that village?”
• “Can I make it back to base before night?”
• “Is it safer to stop and build shelter now?”

PlayerSpeed continuously tracks player movement and exposes speed values through PlaceholderAPI, making it ideal for scoreboards, HUDs, and action bars.

This plugin does not modify player movement — it simply provides meaningful, in-world information that complements survival gameplay.
