How long is 24 hours in Project Zomboid?
My friend hosts our Project Zomboid server and accidentally left it open, I just want to know how long 24 hours is in the game just to tell how long until water and electricity runs out.

Not to sound like a smart-ass... But it's whatever the server host sets it to. I believe the default setting is daytime ='s 1 hour... So 2 hours for a 24 hour cycle.

Day length for a server is set up through PZServerSettings.exe in Zomboid's directory. Can be of variable length, depending on the settings. I think it's 1 day per hour by default.

As a server host who keeps the server running when noone is connected, you can set up if the time should still run or if it "pauses".
Keeping it running leads to farming crops dying if not hydrated as well as food rotting.

I am not sure what the default time setting for MP servers is but I am fairly sure it's something like 24 ingame hours = ~30 real life minutes

it all depends on your day night cycle e.g. 1 hour would be 24 days and so on
