About this Mod
Time Counter

Description
Day Counter adds a small HUD element that shows the current world day and, optionally, the time of day in a 12‑hour format. The text appears in the top‑right corner by default and can be moved to other corners via the config file.

How It Works (for the user)
- The mod draws “Day X” where X is the current day number.
- If the config is set to show the time, it also shows the hour and minute (e.g., “Day 3 | 2 PM”).
- The displayed information updates automatically as the world progresses.
- You can edit the config file while the game runs; changes appear after a short delay.
- The position and offsets are configurable through the same file.
Features
- Shows the day number and optional clock in a movable HUD.
- Configurable anchor (default top‑right) and pixel offsets.
- Supports two display modes: days only, or days with hour/minute.
- Hot‑reloads the config without restarting the game.
- No commands, items, or blocks are added.
Why Use This Mod?
- Quickly keep track of progress without opening menus.
- Customizable placement fits different screen layouts.
- Lightweight and client‑only, so it works on any server.
- Simple, no extra mechanics to learn.
What You'll Notice
- Shows “Day X” where X is the current day number based on world time.
- Optionally shows the current time of day in 12‑hour format with AM/PM.
