BetterSleepBruh

Gone are the days of yelling in chat for everyone to sprint to bed or log off just to make the dark, perilous night pass. Better Sleep Bruh! introduces dynamic time acceleration to Valheim: the more players resting in bed on a multiplayer server, the faster night ticks away!

🌙 How It Works

• 💤 Proportional Acceleration: Nighttime automatically accelerates proportionally to the percentage of players currently sleeping in beds.
• 🛌 No 100% Requirement: If some players are out sailing on a longship, mining in a crypt, or AFK, players back at base can still sleep to significantly speed up the night.
• 🪶 On-Screen Pillow HUD: An intuitive on-screen HUD displays pillow icons for all connected players, lighting up in real time as Vikings tuck themselves into bed.
• 🌅 Smooth Morning Ramp-Down: Time speed smoothly transitions back to 1x as dawn approaches so you never get jolted awake.

📊 Sleep Speed Example

| Players Connected | Players in Bed | Active Speed Bonus | Nighttime Experience | | :---: | :---: | :---: | :--- | | 5 | 5 (100%) | 100% | Full vanilla dream state; instant skip to morning. | | 5 | 4 (80%) | 80% | Blazing-fast night progression. | | 5 | 3 (60%) | 60% | Fast night acceleration while miners/sailors continue working. | | 5 | 1 (20%) | 20% | Noticeable time speedup for the solo sleeper. | | 5 | 0 (0%) | 0% | Normal vanilla passage of time. |

Ocean & Boat Physics

| Setting | Default | Description | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Decouple Water Wave Speed | true | Ocean wave simulation moves at normal real-time speed while time is accelerated, preventing violent wave physics. | | Calm Ocean During Sleep | true | Ocean waves are calmed and smoothed while night is accelerated. | | Ocean Calm Multiplier | 0.5 | Wave height multiplier applied when ocean calming is active (0.0 = completely flat, 1.0 = normal). | | Prevent Boat Sleep Impact Damage | true | Prevents boats from taking spurious water impact damage from waves during accelerated sleep. | | Suppress Boat Impact Screen Shake | true | Prevents camera screen shake caused by high-velocity wave wakes during accelerated sleep. |

🛡️ Advanced Safeguards

• 🖥️ Server-Driven Operation: Time calculations run strictly on the server. Clients do not need the mod installed to benefit from sleep acceleration (the client mod is only required for the on-screen Pillow HUD).
• 🔄 Smooth Environment Sync: Weather, skybox lighting, and day counters transition smoothly across all clients without stutter or desync.
• 🌐 ServerSync Enforced: Configuration parameters are managed by server admins and synced to all clients automatically.
