OnlySleep

Skip the night with just one player sleeping — or configure it your way.

Onlysleep

Onlysleep

One player sleeps. Everyone wakes up.

Based on Bukkit Plugin Onlysleep lets your server skip the night without waiting for every player to find a bed. One sleeper is enough by default, but you can require any percentage from 0 to 100. Install the JAR, restart the server, and the default configuration is ready to use.


Features

  • One-player sleep by default, with configurable percentage thresholds
  • Separate sleep counts for each world
  • Independent controls for clearing rain and thunder
  • Boss bar, action bar, title, and progress-bar feedback
  • Configurable sounds for bed entry and successful night skips
  • Built-in AFK tracking, plus EssentialsX and CMI support
  • Filters for spectators, creative players, flying players, game modes, and exempt permissions
  • Automatic handling of the playersSleepingPercentage gamerule
  • PlaceholderAPI support for sleep, world, and status data (only for bukkit)
  • Optional update checks and anonymous bStats metrics

Configuration

You can use the defaults as-is. The main setting is sleep-percentage in config.yml:

  • 0 = one player sleeps, everyone wakes up
  • 50 = half the server needs to be in bed
  • 100 = everyone has to sleep

Set per-world-sleep: false if you want global counting across all worlds.

See config.yml for every option and messages.yml for message customization.
