Pause Server When Empty is a datapack designed to enhance your server by automatically pausing the daylight and weather cycles when no players are online. This makes the weather, and day counter stay exactly as they were. The datapack is named after the server.properties setting because I didn't like how Minecraft completely tick freezes the game when that option is enabled.
Features:
- Automatic Pausing: The server's daylight and weather cycles are paused when no players are online, and resumed when players join.
- AFK Integration: Optional integration with Bodebojo's AFK Display to exclude AFK players from the online player count.
- Easy Setup: Simple installation and configuration process.
Commands
- /function pause_server_when_empty:config: Access the configuration menu to customize settings.
