Smart-Counter

A Minecraft fabric mod that counts redstone ticks, game ticks, and real-life second delays of redstone component lines for you.

How to use

Tick Counter

Type /tickcounter in the chat to enable the tick counter. All interactions (right-click and left-click) with blocks are disabled so you don't accidentally change repeater ticks while in this mode.
Right-click on any redstone component to count its tick delay. You can click on multiple consecutive components to add up their ticks together. Special-cases such as two consecutive pistons resulting in an extra game tick are considered.
Left-click to reset the tick counter back to 0 or…
Type /tickcounter again to reset the counter to 0, disable the tick counter, and re-enable block interactions.

Node Counter

Type /nodecounter in the chat to enable the node counter. All interactions (right-click and left-click) with blocks are disabled so you don't accidentally change repeater ticks while in this mode.
Right-click on any redstone dust wire to set a new node. Set at least two nodes.
Activate the redstone line that changes the power-level of the active nodes. You'll get a message in chat to tell you the tick difference between the two nodes changing power levels.
Left-click to remove all active nodes.
Type /nodecounter again to disable the node counter, and re-enable block interactions.

Fixed chat spam when clearing tick counter with left-click
The chat message of adding new tick counter ticks now only shows up only when new ticks have been added, not on every right-click
Fixed bug with last release that meant commands were server-side. They are now client-side as intended
