Now You Sleep

A lightweight Valheim mod that allows night to pass when at least one player is sleeping.

In vanilla multiplayer, every player must sleep before the night can be skipped. Now You Sleep changes that requirement so a single sleeping player can trigger the normal sleep-to-morning flow.

In-game multiplayer behavior

• Server admin (host) has Now You Sleep installed
• Any player connected to that host goes to sleep
• All players, wherever they are in the world, will go to sleep too.

Features

• Allows night to pass when at least one player is in bed
• Works in single player, peer-hosted multiplayer, and dedicated servers
• Server-side behavior: only the host/server needs the mod installed
• Uses Valheim's normal sleep and time-skip system
• Configurable enable/disable setting
• Optional debug logging

Multiplayer

This mod should be installed on the host or dedicated server.

Clients do not need the mod installed.
