Tracking and Receiving Automated Playtime Rewards

How Reward Delivery Works

Dark Rewards deposits surprise items straight into your character's inventory based purely on active playtime. The system runs on a recurring 30-minute interval—every half-hour you spend in your world, a random item bundle from the reward pool is selected and delivered directly to you.

Whenever a reward arrives, the mod sends a clear in-game chat notification. This message informs you the moment a drop has occurred so you never miss an incoming item while exploring, building, or mining.

Managing Your Inventory for Drops

Because items are placed directly into your inventory, keep these practical habits in mind:

1. Reserve Empty Slots: Keep at least one or two empty inventory slots available while adventuring so surprise items can be received without issue.

2. Check Chat Prompts: Read the chat notification as soon as it appears to see whether you received food, building supplies, or rare materials.

3. Store Surplus Items: Regularly deposit excess reward items—such as duplicate food stacks or utility materials—into storage chests at your base to prevent your inventory from filling up over long play sessions.
