Use the Day Counter in Existing Worlds
Adding the Pack to Established Saves
The Chronos Counter Data Pack works seamlessly with existing worlds—you don't need to start a new save to use it. Simply place the datapack file into your world's datapacks folder and reload.
No Save Corruption
The pack is non-destructive and won't modify your world data, blocks, or inventory. When you load your existing world:
- The counter will display your world's actual current day (calculated from your playtime)
- All your progress, builds, and items remain unchanged
- You can remove the pack anytime without issues
This makes it perfect for adding to worlds mid-playthrough, whether you're resuming an old survival world or joining a multiplayer server. The counter simply reads your world's day value and displays it—no alterations to your save file occur.
