Incompatibilities
Any mods that add sleep voting, or otherwise modify the sleeping mechanic itself will not work with this mod. You can set a minimum amount of players that have to sleep using the vanilla Minecraft gamerule PLAYERS_SLEEP_PERCENTAGE.
Any mods which simply add buffs/debuffs after waking up should work. Create an issue on the issue tracker if you've found an incompatibility!
- BetterSleeping Revived - Buffs, debuffs, and chat messages don't trigger (
see issue #18 for more details)
- Time and Wind - Adjusted time snaps back to vanilla time
- Time Control - Adjusted time snaps back to vanilla time
Download
See the version info in the filename for the supported Minecraft versions. Made for the Fabric, Quilt, Forge, and NeoForge modloaders. Server side (with optional client side support for the cloud speed multiplier and a sleep vignette config option).
FAQ
- Q: Will you be backporting this to lower Minecraft versions?
A: No.
- Q: Does this mod work in multiplayer?
A: Yes! The speed of the night scales for each player that's sleeping at the same time. The scale curve can be changed in the config.
- Q: Does only the server need this mod or does the client need it too?
A: Only the server needs this mod (but it works on the client too if you're going to host LAN or play singleplayer). There's optional clientside support for the cloud speed multiplier and a sleep vignette config option.
- Q: Can you still avoid rain/thunder by sleeping?
A: Yes. After sleeping until dawn the weather will become clear. I might make this configurable in the future, let me know if you want this.
- Q: Does this mod speed up things like furnaces, redstone, the raid timer, and other (modded) block entities?
A: Yes!
