how would i display the accurate days played with text

[graceful hazel]

You can display world days with the game_time placeholder, but for accurate days played there isn’t a dedicated placeholder for that in Spiffy/FancyMenu docs right now.

If you mean Minecraft in-game days, you can calculate it from ticks:

{"placeholder":"calc","values":{"decimal":"false","expression":"{"placeholder":"game_time"} / 24000"}}

That gives you the number of full days.

If you want it as text, just put that placeholder into a Text element.

If you mean a true “days played” stat from player stats, I can’t confirm a supported placeholder for that from the docs.

i mean in world days that pass

[graceful hazel]

Yep — for world days that pass, use the world time tick counter and divide by 24000 🙂

Use this in a Text element:

{"placeholder":"calc","values":{"decimal":"false","expression":"{"placeholder":"game_time"} / 24000"}}

That will show the number of full in-game days passed.

If you want, I can also show you how to format it like:

• Days Played: 12
• Day 12
• 12 days passed

it doesnt seem to be going up when i add time to the world

[graceful hazel]

That placeholder is based on the world tick time, so it only increases when the world is actually running.

If it isn’t going up, check these two things first:

• Are you testing in a loaded world and not just in menus?
• Are you maybe using a static value somewhere instead of the live game_time placeholder?

Also, if you want day count, game_time / 24000 can stay the same for a long time because it only changes once every full day.

If you want, send me:

• the exact text/placeholder you used
• whether this is in a Text element or a Progress Bar
• your Minecraft + Spiffy/FancyMenu version

Then I can help you narrow it down 🙂

i used the extact code you gave me

[graceful hazel]

Then the most likely issue is that game_time is not the right placeholder for what you want.

For actual passing world days, try using the world daytime placeholder instead:

{"placeholder":"calc","values":{"decimal":"false","expression":"{"placeholder":"world_daytime"} / 24000"}}

But note: world_daytime is the current time of day, so it resets every Minecraft day.

If you want a counter that keeps increasing day by day, FancyMenu’s docs don’t show a dedicated placeholder for that. In that case, I can’t confirm a working built-in solution from the docs.

If you want, I can help you make a day counter with a variable + ticker instead.
