== Compatibility ==
=== GregTech: New Horizons ===
Time Checker was made for GTNH and is built against the same Forge version (10.13.4.1614). It was designed to add no conflict risk to the pack:
* no coremod, no ASM, no access transformers and no mixins
* the timer is drawn and the key is read only through the regular Forge events
* no dependencies on NEI, GregTech or any other mod
* a normal Forge config file that pack makers can ship with their other configs

If the timer overlaps another overlay, change <code>anchor</code>, <code>offsetX</code> and <code>offsetY</code>. See [[TimeChecker:Configuration|Configuration]].

=== Other setups ===
The mod has no dependencies and also runs in a plain Forge 1.7.10 instance. It only loads on Minecraft 1.7.10.

=== Servers ===
The mod is only needed on the client. You can join servers without it, and a server with the mod installed does not require it from players. On a dedicated server it does nothing.

== FAQ ==
;Is this my playtime?
:In singleplayer it comes close, because the timer only counts while the world is running and not paused. On a server it is the age of the server's world, which keeps counting while you are offline. See [[TimeChecker:Display|Display]].

;Why is a "day" in the timer so long?
:A day in the timer is 24 hours of game time, not a 20-minute Minecraft day.

;The timer is slower than my real clock. Why?
:It counts game ticks. When the game or the server lags and runs below 20 ticks per second, fewer ticks pass per real second.

;Does <code>/time set</code> or sleeping change the timer?
:No. Those change the time of day. The timer uses the world's total tick count, which only goes up.

;Can I reset the timer?
:Not with this mod. It only reads the world's tick counter and never changes it.

;I opened a world I created before installing the mod. Does it start at zero?
:No. The tick counter is part of every world, so the timer shows the full age of the world, including the time before you installed the mod.

;The timer has disappeared.
:Press <code>F6</code> (or the key you assigned under ''Options → Controls → Time Checker''). Also check that the F3 debug screen is closed and the HUD is not hidden with F1.

;My color doesn't work and the text is white.
:The value could not be read. Use <code>RRGGBB</code> or <code>AARRGGBB</code>, optionally with <code>#</code> or <code>0x</code>, and nothing else on that line. The log contains a warning with the value that was rejected.

;Does the mod change anything in my worlds?
:No. It saves nothing in the world and only writes its own config file.
