Timer and pause

Use the timer to start and pause your run. Chat messages and timer status show what happens next.

Use the timer

In a challenge run, start the timer when your group is ready. Before that, challenge rules are not active yet. Use /timer status whenever you want to check the timer.

Pause and continue a run

When you pause, run time stops and the world freezes. Your team can talk or take a break. A visible countdown runs before continuing. The game continues after it.

Stopping the server ends your session. Starting it again later resets its time.

Check the rules

Use /run info for an overview and /run players for the player list. In challenge runs, /run rules shows rules. Use /run goals for goals and /run settings for settings. This helps settle questions with the actual settings of your run.
