Bed Overhaul
by Iru
Bed Overhaul changes how sleeping works, so that a bed becomes a required part of getting through the night in Minecraft Java Edition.
What it does
Bed Overhaul makes players use a bed, a compass, a clock and a spawn point to skip the night, and it is built to address the problem of new players who try to survive their first night without one. The aim is to encourage players to keep their main bed as a base and carry one around, instead of relying on clocks. Beds also find a nearby village to help skip, and players are pushed to keep trying to survive until the skip happens.
The mod runs on Fabric and Quilt for 1.19.2 – 1.20.1, and the server needs it while players may add it on the client. Files exist for 1.19.2, 1.19.3, 1.19.4 and 1.20.1, released under the MIT License, and the source code is open source.
Key features
Required sleep setup
Skipping the night depends on a bed, a compass and a clock, so the bed remains the central piece of the setup.
Village bed search
Beds can locate a village nearby to help skip the night, giving players a reason to build near one.
Pressure on first nights
Survival is pushed harder on a first night until a skip is possible, which targets new players in particular.

What the author says
Making this mod I wanted to address the issue where new players do not try to survive the first night, but make a bed (or find it in a village) and skip it! When you install Bed Overhaul, you will first need to use a clock on a bed (just right-click on it while holding!) to make it able to skip the night (or a…
