Settings/Commands

All settings are stored in .minecraft/config/realclock.json and can be edited manually. The config is self-healing - any invalid values will be reset to defaults automatically on next launch.

You can also change any setting using the /realclock command - no need to edit the config file directly. Changes take effect immediately and are saved automatically.

The clock can also be toggled with the K keybind (rebindable in Options > Controls).
