[1.19] How do I get the ingame time?

[ForboJack]

I want a timer to count down. With "System.currentTimeMillis()" I can get the current time and use it for counting. But when I pause and unpause the game 5 seconds, the timer updates to 5 seconds later. Is there a way to get the real ingame time, so the time before and after the pause is the same?

If you have access to the `LevelData` (most likely through the `Level`), you can call `getGameTime` to get the current number of ticks that has passed since the save was first created.
