Less Sleepers

A Hytale server plugin that gives you full control over the sleep mechanic.

Overview

LessSleepers allows server administrators to customize how many players need to be sleeping before the night is skipped. No more waiting for every single player to find a bed!

Configure rules that fit your server's playstyle.

Features

• Flexible Sleep Rules — Choose between percentage-based or fixed count requirements
• Per-World Configuration — Each world can have its own sleep settings
• Real-time Chat Notifications — Players see live updates of sleep progress
• Persistent Settings — Configurations are saved and persist across server restarts
• OP-Only Commands — Only operators can modify sleep settings
• Colored Messages — Beautiful, easy-to-read chat messages

Commands

All commands require operator permissions (hytale.op).

All commands default to the current world if [world] is not specified.

Sleep Rules

Percentage Rule (Default)

Requires a percentage of online players to be sleeping.

/lsleep set percentage 50

Examples:

• 50% with 10 players → 5 players must sleep
• 25% with 8 players → 2 players must sleep
• 100% → All players must sleep (vanilla behavior)

Fixed Count Rule

Requires an exact number of players to be sleeping, regardless of total online. If the number fixed is superior to players connected, all connected players can still sleep for skipping the night.

/lsleep set fixed 2

Examples:

• fixed 1 → Only 1 player needs to sleep
• fixed 3 → Requires exactly 3 players sleeping

Chat Notifications

When enabled, all players in the world receive updates when someone enters or leaves a bed:

Toggle notifications per-world:

/lsleep messages false   — Disable notifications
/lsleep messages true    — Enable notifications

Quiet Mode

Disable chat spam for servers that prefer minimal notifications:

/lsleep messages false

Status Display

Check your current configuration anytime:

/lsleepers status

Permissions

Default Settings

Technical Notes

• Settings are stored per-world in the world configuration
• The plugin replaces the vanilla StartSlumberSystem with a customized version
• Sleep progress is checked at a 0.3 tick rate for optimal performance
• Percentage values are rounded to 4 decimal places to avoid floating-point issues
