  1. What time zone are you currently using?
  2. If you change your time zone, do you observe the GUI clock changing? If not, the GUI clock may be using a fixed time zone such as UTC.

  1. pacific standard time
  2. time did not change when changing time zones

That probably confirms that the GUI clock is using UTC instead of local time.
Pacific Standard Time is UTC-8, and 2 pm UTC-8 = 10 pm UTC.

I've confirmed and the mod uses the PC's local time in the PC's local timezone. If that's incorrect, there is something wrong with the system's settings. Not something I can fix unfortunately. Thanks for giving the mod a try!

This issue has been closed for quite some time, I apologize for bringing it up again as I was also seeking this answer. I just consulted ChatGPT, which provided a useful solution: by adding the JVM parameter -Duser.timezone, such as in the command java -Duser.timezone=Asia/Shanghai -jar yourprogram.jar, the timezone will be set to "Asia/Shanghai". In this case, the time displayed in the chat would be 8 hours ahead of UTC, which is the correct time for me. I hope this could be of help to some people.
