DayTime Detector

This mod adds a new block to the Redstone Blocks tab that functions similarly to the Daylight Detector.

The purpose of this block is to provide an alternative to the standard Daylight Detector by using overworld's dayTime data instead of skyLight.

This allows it to work even when:

  • The block doesn’t receive sky light.
  • The block is located in a dimension without a day/night cycle, such as the Nether or the End.
