Chronopyre
by friedkeenan
With Chronopyre, a campfire lit at night can stand in for a bed, letting players pass the night by resting beside it.
What it does
Night resting works through lit campfires instead of beds. When night falls during a thunderstorm, a player can start resting by right-clicking a lit campfire while holding nothing in the hand. Once enough players are resting, measured against the usual playersSleepingPercentage game rule, time advances and the night passes about five times faster than normal, taking roughly two minutes instead of ten. Players who keep resting stay near the campfire, since leaving it cancels the rest, and right-clicking the campfire with an empty hand also ends it.
The mod changes beds so that players can no longer sleep in them, though beds still set a respawn point. Campfires are unlit by default, which the author describes as a way to balance resting. Tent structures with a campfire and modest loot are added to world generation. Chronopyre is open source under the ISC License, with the source code and issue tracker public, and it runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Fabric only, for 1.19.2 – 1.20.2 with 1.2.0 for 1.20.2 as the latest file.
