About this Mod

TimedLife Datapack

The TimedLife datapack adds an exciting element to your Minecraft gameplay by introducing a time-based challenge. Each player begins with a limited amount of time, and as the clock ticks down, they must strategically gather rare blocks to extend their lifespans. Once a player's remaining time reaches zero, they face the ultimate consequence – death.

How to Play

  1. Start: Your time begins ticking down as soon as you move.
  2. Gain Time: Place rare blocks, stand on them, and sneak to consume them, adding precious minutes to your remaining time.
  3. Survive: Strategize and extend your lifespan by wisely using rare blocks.
  4. Consequence: When your remaining time hits zero, you will face unavoidable death.

Rare Block List

  • Beacon | 30 Minutes
  • Block of Netherite | 30 Minutes
  • Block of Diamond | 15 Minutes
  • Block of Emerald | 5 Minutes
  • Block of Gold | 3 Minutes
  • Block of Iron | 2 Minutes

Notes

This datapack is inspired by a video I saw a few years ago, unfortunately I can't find it or I would credit it for the idea.

Frequently Asked Questions

TimedLife server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong datapack version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.20.4). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is TimedLife compatible with datapack and fabric and forge and quilt?

TimedLife officially supports datapack, fabric, forge, quilt for Minecraft 1.20.4, 1.20.3, 1.20.2. Note: Forge and Fabric mods are NOT cross-compatible – pick one loader and stick with it. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with TimedLife – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if TimedLife consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
