Slumber Mod FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

How do I turn on server freezing?
Use the command `/slumber true` to enable the freezing feature. You can verify it's active by running `/slumber` to see the current status.
What happens when the server freezes?
When frozen, the server stops processing ticks, which means no mobs spawn or move, crops don't grow, redstone doesn't update, and no other game logic progresses. Everything resumes instantly when a player joins.
Does freezing affect my world save?
No, freezing only pauses game logic—your world data is safe and nothing is lost. When the server unfreezes, everything continues from exactly where it was.
Can I check if my server is currently frozen?
Run the `/slumber` command without arguments to display whether freezing is enabled and whether the server is currently frozen.
Will my farms and machines work while the server is frozen?
No, frozen servers don't process any game updates, so farms won't grow crops, furnaces won't smelt, and machines won't operate until a player logs in and the server unfreezes.
How much CPU does this mod actually save?
The savings depend on your server load, but freezing eliminates all tick processing when no players are online, which can significantly reduce resource usage for servers that sit idle between play sessions.
Does the mod work with other server mods?
Slumber Mod is designed to be compatible with most server mods since it works at the tick level, but always test on a backup world if you're using many mods together.
What if I want to disable freezing temporarily?
Use `/slumber false` to disable freezing without uninstalling the mod. You can re-enable it anytime with `/slumber true`.
Do I need to restart the server after toggling freezing?
No, the `/slumber` commands take effect immediately without requiring a server restart.
Will players experience lag when joining a frozen server?
No, the server unfreezes instantly when a player connects, so login should be smooth with no noticeable delay.
