SleepThroughDay
Adds a Day bed. When everyone naps in one during the day, time skips to nightfall. Refuses at night with jokes. Optional bed rules for all beds, like sleeping with enemies nearby. Server synced config.SleepThroughDay
Want the night to come sooner? Build a Day bed, nap in it, and wake up at nightfall.
Normal beds only work from the afternoon on, and they skip to the next morning. This mod adds a Day bed that does the opposite. Nap in it during the day, and when every player online is napping in one, time skips to nightfall.
What it does
- Adds the Day bed to the Hammer, under Furniture. It needs a Workbench.
- Nap in it from morning until nightfall. When every player online lies in a Day bed, time skips to nightfall with the usual sleep fade.
- You wake up to "Good evening" and get the Rested bonus like after a normal sleep.
- The Day bed cannot be used at night. Use a normal bed then, which still skips to morning. So nobody can sleep the whole game away.
- Try it at night anyway and the bed refuses with one of 30 jokes. Normal beds that refuse in the morning get 50 jokes of their own.
- The Day bed has a darkwood frame and red straw, so it is easy to tell apart.
- It never claims an owner and never sets your spawn point. Anyone can nap in any Day bed.
Rules in multiplayer
- Everyone online has to nap in a Day bed for the skip to happen, the same way everyone has to sleep for a normal night skip.
- Mixed beds do nothing. While anyone lies in a Day bed, the normal skip to morning waits too.
- The usual bed checks apply to the Day bed too (a roof, a fire nearby, not wet). Enemies nearby are ignored by default. The Beds settings below change these checks for every bed.

Installation
- Use a mod manager (r2modman or Thunderstore Mod Manager), or put
SleepThroughDay.dllintoBepInEx/plugins. - For multiplayer, install it on the server and on every player. Players without the mod cannot join a server that has it, and players with the mod cannot join a server without it.
- Requires BepInExPack Valheim and Jotunn.
Compatibility
- The Day bed has its own code, so other bed mods cannot make it usable at night.
- The Beds settings cover what BedRules does for enemies, roof, fire, wet, spawn point and owned beds. Sleeping at any time is left out on purpose. Running both together is not tested and not needed.
- Nothing is saved to the character. Day beds you built are world objects and need the mod to show up.
How it works
The Day bed is a copy of the vanilla bed with its own bed component. Lying in it marks the player as napping. The server checks every player each frame, and when all of them nap in a Day bed during the day, it runs the game's own time skip with nightfall as the target.
