You May Rest Now
by Jam Core
With You May Rest Now installed on a server, players can sleep through the night even when hostile monsters are nearby, as long as those monsters cannot reach them.
What it does
The mod changes the vanilla rule that blocks sleep when monsters are close. Under the default setting, a player may sleep only if no nearby monster can path to them. Three modes adjust this check: one keeps the vanilla behavior, one allows sleep only when nearby monsters cannot reach the player, and one always allows sleep whatever monsters are around. The mechanic can also be turned off completely in the config.
The mod is server-side only, so only the server needs it and players join without installing anything. It requires Architectury API, Fabric API, JamLib and Quilted Fabric API (QFAPI) / Quilt Standard Libraries (QSL), depending on the loader. Builds exist for 1.20.4 – 1.21.1, with the latest Fabric and NeoForge files at 1.0.0+1.21 for 1.21.1 and the latest Forge and Quilt files at 1.0.0+1.20.4 for 1.20.4. The code is open source under the MIT License.
