DarkTimer Mod FAQ
6 questions players actually ask, answered.
What problem does the DarkTimer Mod solve?
It fixes the issue where dropped items on modded servers do not despawn after 5 minutes, which causes entity buildup and server lag. It does this by clearing dropped ground items on a timer.
How often does DarkTimer clear dropped items by default?
It clears dropped ground items every 10 minutes by default. This helps reduce entity lag in heavily modded environments.
Does DarkTimer warn players before clearing items?
Yes, it displays a warning message 10 minutes and 1 minute before items are cleared. This gives players time to pick up anything important.
Can the cleanup interval be changed?
Yes, you can change the duration of the timer using datapacks. This lets you control how often the cleanup happens.
What kinds of items does DarkTimer remove?
It removes dropped ground items to reduce entity buildup. It is aimed at unwanted items players have left on the ground.
Why is DarkTimer useful on heavily modded servers?
On heavily modded servers, dropped items may not despawn and can accumulate, causing entity lag for players. DarkTimer's regular cleanup helps prevent that buildup.
