A lightweight Paper plugin that tracks the number of in-game days on your Minecraft server.


What does it do?

Ever wanted to know how many days your server has survived? Just type /daycount and you'll see it instantly. The plugin is smart enough to pause time when nobody's online, so the counter stays meaningful and accurate.


Features

  • Day tracking — Counts total days based on in-game world time
  • Smart pause — Freezes the daylight cycle when no players are online
  • Multilingual — Full support for English and French
  • Auto-updating config — New config keys are added automatically on update, without losing your settings
  • Hot reload — Reload the config in-game with /daycount reload
