SuperTime

Server Plugin

A lightweight Paper plugin for controlling, freezing, and accelerating the passage of time in every Minecraft world.

About SuperTime

SuperTime gives server administrators full control over the day and night cycle. Freeze the current time, lock a world to day, noon, or night, or make time pass faster with speeds ranging from 1x to 1000x.

Each world can have its own independent time mode and speed. Settings are saved automatically and restored after a server restart.

• Lock worlds to day, noon, or night
• Set time speed from 1x to 1000x
• Configure worlds independently
• Automatically save world settings
