A time marker is a feature that assigns a particular name to a specific (optionally repeating) point in time for a specific world clock. Time markers replace the previously predetermined names that could be used by /time set, for example day or night.

Time markers will exist within the context of a specific world clock. This means that even though the different time markers are defined by different Timelines, only one Time Marker can exist with a particular id for a particular world clock. It also means that two world clocks can have a Time Marker with the same name.

• Built-in uses of time markers
  • Some time markers are used to drive Vanilla game behavior. Usually, they are configured to not show up in /time commands.
    • minecraft:wake_up_from_sleep - the time to advance the dimension's default clock to when players in that dimension wake up after sleeping.
    • minecraft:roll_village_siege - the time of the dimension's default clock at which the random chance for a Zombie Village siege to occur should be evaluated.
