How to install Minecraft Data Packs

This data pack allows you to extend the length of your Minecraft day (and/or night).

By default, daytime is extended by 12000 ticks (10 minutes; twice the normal time), and nighttime is unchanged. If you'd like to change that, you can find the configuration file at "data\long_day\functions\config.mcfunction" within the zip file of the data pack.

Known Issues
  • Extending night time has a chance of preventing the night from passing correctly when sleeping in a bed.

Bugs Fixed
  • Using the /time command to change the time sometimes causes time to stop progressing.

Yeah, long nights aren't always slept through. Here's my manual solution:
Run time query day

Then run
time set xd
Where x is the result from the previous command plus one. This preserves moon phases et cetera.
Of course, you can do it with ticks etc but the maths is simpler this way.
I don't know how you could make this automated for the datapack to do.

No easy way to automate that without stepping forward in time by some set amount and then checking if it's daytime yet, then doing the same, or doing some math and then a massive block of "if this value, then step forward this amount" statements, both of which will be inefficient.

It's possible to increase the night time with this data pack by changing the config file (details in the description), but you risk not being able to pass the night when you sleep, which is a weird interaction between how I extend time and how Minecraft sleeping works.

Technically, you could, but this data pack doesn't have any such functionality, sorry.

Great datapack, we use this along with the long days datapack.

Do you think you could add an optional configuration where if its setup to only have phantoms on full moon, you have a simple broadcast message we can choose to enable that occurs saying "The Full Moon and risen."

So players are alerted to the fact phantoms will spawn?
Thought it would be cool to have a "uh-oh" factor added

Also, I seem to find the daylight cycle randomly stopping with the new datapack if I add time to the day, does it disable dodaylightcycle at all?

Thanks, I'm glad you like it!

Yes, this data pack switches doDaylightCycle on and off in such a way that time appears to slow down. Theoretically it should be okay if you move time forward or backward, but I'll look into it and see if I can replicate the problem. Thank you for letting me know!

What other features would you like it to have? I don't have any further ideas myself.

Would be Nice if this Datapack had a way to have more "Weather Types" But that should maybe be a separate datapack?



as for this datapack It would be nice to be able to make the Night x length and day x length seperately Instead of mirrored D:

It's not mirrored, they're completely independent on each other in the config; you can set each of them to whatever you'd like.

I won't be adding weather to this data pack, as it doesn't really fit the purpose.
