About this project
What does Night Trials add?
Night Trials transforms Minecraft’s simple sleeping system into a more immersive and configurable survival mechanic. Instead of instantly skipping the entire night, players can experience a gradual passage of time, prevent night skipping completely, or keep the original vanilla sleeping behavior.
The mod can be configured to activate after a specific in-game day, making it ideal for survival worlds, hardcore challenges, modpacks, and long-term adventures where nights become more important as the game progresses.
Features
- Choose the in-game day when the new sleeping mechanics activate.
- Gradually advance the night instead of skipping it instantly.
- Customize the sleeping duration from 10 to 600 seconds.
Three configurable sleeping modes:
- Slow Skip: Time advances gradually while players sleep.
- No Skip: Sleeping does not skip the night.
- Vanilla: Uses Minecraft’s original sleeping behavior.
- Modern Minecraft-style sleep progress interface.
- Displays sleep percentage and remaining time.
- Adjustable HUD size and screen position.
- Support for Minecraft’s multiplayer sleeping percentage.
- Optional sleep transition messages.
- In-game configuration screen.
Perfect For
- Hardcore survival worlds.
- Zombie apocalypse and horror modpacks.
- Long-term survival challenges.
- “100 Days” adventures.
- Players who want nights to feel dangerous and meaningful.
Configuration
All major features can be adjusted directly through the in-game configuration screen, including the activation day, sleeping mode, gradual skip duration, HUD visibility, HUD scale, HUD position, multiplayer support, and chat messages.
Night Trials requires Minecraft Forge 1.20.1.
