Synchrono

A Minecraft modification that synchronizes the in-game day and night cycle with real-time in a selected location.

For accurate determination of sunrise and sunset times, information from SunriseSunset.io is used, while current weather data comes from Open-Meteo.com. The server location can be configured through configuration files.

Coordinate Configuration

Before starting to play, you need to specify the geographical coordinates of your server (or any other location you want to synchronize with in-game time).

To find the required coordinates, you can, for example, search for "coordinates " on the internet. You will need two decimal values, which can be either positive or negative.

(In the future, this process may be automated)

Graphical Interface Configuration

In the graphical configuration menu (requires Mod Menu installation), you need to find the Latitude and Longitude parameters. If you're unsure which value corresponds to what, latitude is usually specified first.

Configuration File

The configuration file (necessary, for example, when setting up a server) is located at <server directory>/config/synchrono.json5. Its content looks something like this:

{
    latitude: 51.11,
    longitude: 17.02,
    / rest of the file /
}

Replace these two values with your coordinates. Make sure the commas at the end of lines remain in place.

Additional Settings

Detailed information about other configuration parameters can be found in the project wiki.

Dependencies

The Custom Time Cycle modification by eclipseisoffline is used for smooth slowing of the day and night cycle in the game.

YetAnotherConfigLib provides configuration API and graphical interface.

Compatibility with Other Modifications

When installed simultaneously with Adjusted Phantom Spawns, phantoms automatically start appearing only after 3 real days have passed.

External API Usage

This modification periodically accesses external APIs on the internet to obtain necessary data.

• SunriseSunset.io - used for accurate determination of sunrise and sunset times in a specific location
• Open-Meteo.com - provides current weather information

If your server doesn't have access to these resources, installing the modification may cause operational failures.
