Early Bedtime
by Txni
With Early Bedtime, players can go to sleep about 50 seconds before the sun reaches the horizon, which the mod sets by default.
What it does
The mod lets a sleeper start the night earlier than vanilla allows. By default the offset is 1000 ticks, and the value can be changed in the mod's settings. It is needed because many shaderpacks darken the sky long before vanilla does, so the bed can look usable while the game still refuses it. Early Bedtime needs Fabric API and TxniLib, and it is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge for game versions 1.20 – 1.21.5. It runs on the server, so players join without installing anything.
Key features
Earlier sleep
Beds accept sleep before the sun reaches the horizon, by the configured number of ticks.
Adjustable offset
The early window can be changed in the mod's settings, so server owners choose how far ahead sleep starts.
Shaderpack support
Players using shaders with exaggerated sunsets can sleep when the screen already looks dark.
