Basic implementation of the elder scrolls calendar for servers.

Description

What is it?

Tracks server time and translates it into the calender from the Elder Scrolls series. Players are presented with a message upon joining of the current date, and also after the day change they are presented with the new date in the same fashion.

Some important things to know:

  • A year has 365 days in it, and there are no leap years
  • A year starts on the first day of spring (March 14th). This is to achieve parity with seasons, which defaults the first day to Spring 1 - it is also traditional for Harvest Moon type games to do this
  • An era is 1000 years
  • A day has 24000 ticks
  • There are (presently) no holidays implemented.

Why?

This was made specifically for the server my brother and I use, and I feel I can't be the only person who likes this kind of thing.

Forge version?

I don't plan to port it myself, but the implementation is pretty simple - only a small amount of tinkering is needed for anyone so inclined.

Backporting?

Same as with Forge. My friend group only really plays 1.20.1 currently, so that is the version I make things for

Can I use this in X?

I can't (and won't) stop you. Feel free to use on your server, in a video, in a mod pack, fork the mod and make changes.

Remarks

I (obviously) do not have any legal ownership of The Elder Scrolls IP, nor am I associated with Bethesda / Bethesda Softworks / Microsoft in any fashion. This is purely a love letter to the series at large and the lore they have established.
