Frequently asked questions

How do I install this data pack on my server?
Drop the data pack file into your world's datapacks folder, then run /reload or restart the server. You can confirm it loaded by checking /datapack list.
How do I change the sleep percentage?
Run /gamerule playersSleepingPercentage followed by your desired value. The data pack sets it to 50 by default, but you can override it at any time.
Do all players need to sleep to skip the night now?
No. With this data pack only half the players on the server need to be in bed for the night to pass, so you don't have to wait for everyone.
Why isn't the night skipping even though people are sleeping?
Check that playersSleepingPercentage is actually set to 50 or lower with /gamerule, and make sure the data pack is enabled in /datapack list. If the value got reset, re-run the gamerule command.
