For example:
For example:
:{{In|java}}, when executing <code>/time set day</code> or <code>/time set 1000</code>, the daylight cycle time is set to 1000, so the "day" value returns to 0.
:{{MC/In|java}}, when executing <code>/time set day</code> or <code>/time set 1000</code>, the daylight cycle time is set to 1000, so the "day" value returns to 0.
:{{IN|bedrock}}, when executing <code>/time set 1000</code>, the daylight cycle time is also set to 1000. But, for <code>/time set day</code>, if now the daylight cycle time is 25001 (1 day + 1001 ticks), after executing <code>/time set day</code>, it won't become 1000 or 25000, since '''it only increases the daylight cycle time''' when using {{cd|time: TimeSpec}}. In fact, it turns into 49000 (2 days + 1000 ticks), and the "day" value becomes 2. If now the daylight cycle time is 25000 (1 day + 1000 ticks), after executing <code>/time set day</code>, it remains unchanged.

Template:Infobox command

Changes or queries the world's game time or the time of a world clock.

Usage

There are four types of time involved in this command:

  • Gametime - The total number of game ticks that have elapsed in the world.
  • Daylight cycle time (aka. internal daytime) - The total number of game ticks that have elapsed during the daylight cycle. It does not elapse when the game rule Template:Gmr is false.
  • Daytime - The number of game ticks that have elapsed since sunrise on current day. It is the result of dividing the daylight cycle time modulo 24,000.
  • Day - The number of days that have elapsed during the daylight cycle. It is the result of floor division by 24,000 of the daylight cycle time.

in Template:Editions, if the world is frozen by the

  1. REDIRECT Template:Command

Template:Redr command, the four times above do not elapse.

  • World clock time - the time the world clock is set to.

/time set ... command in Template:Editions always directly sets the daylight cycle time to the specified number. But in Template:Editions, when

  1. REDIRECT Template:Code

Template:Redr is specified, it increases the daylight cycle time to meet the specified

  1. REDIRECT Template:Code

Template:Redr.

For example:

in Template:Editions, when executing /time set day or /time set 1000, the daylight cycle time is set to 1000, so the "day" value returns to 0.
in Template:Editions, when executing /time set 1000, the daylight cycle time is also set to 1000. But, for /time set day, if now the daylight cycle time is 25001 (1 day + 1001 ticks), after executing /time set day, it won't become 1000 or 25000, since it only increases the daylight cycle time when using
  1. REDIRECT Template:Code

Template:Redr. In fact, it turns into 49000 (2 days + 1000 ticks), and the "day" value becomes 2. If now the daylight cycle time is 25000 (1 day + 1000 ticks), after executing /time set day, it remains unchanged.
