Sleep Vote

Sleep Vote

Vote to skip the night.

Sleep Vote replaces the vanilla sleep mechanic with a community vote system. Instead of needing a majority of players to physically sleep in beds, anyone can trigger a vote and let the server decide democratically whether to skip the night.

How It Works

When a player right-clicks a bed during the night, a server-wide vote is automatically started. All players have 15 seconds (configurable) to cast their vote. If at least half of the server votes yes, the night is skipped instantly.

Commands

| Command | Description |
|—|—|
| /sleep yes | Vote to skip the night |
| /sleep no | Vote to keep the night |
| /sleep reload | Reload the config without restarting (operators only) |

Vote Rules

• A vote is triggered automatically when a player interacts with a bed at night
• Players can only vote once per vote
• The vote passes if there are more yes than no votes and at least half of all online players voted yes (configurable)
• If the vote fails, the night continues as normal

Config

The config file is created automatically the first time the server starts:

• Fabric: config/sleep-vote.json
• Paper / Purpur: plugins/SleepVote/config.yml

| Setting | Default | Description |
|—|—|—|
| passPercentage | 50 | Percentage (0–100) of online players that must vote yes |
| minYesVotes | 1 | Minimum number of yes votes, regardless of player count |
| voteDurationSeconds | 15 | How long a vote stays open, in seconds |

After editing, run /sleep reload or restart the server.

The config is not available in the Fabric 1.21.11 version.

Compatibility

• Fabric: 1.21.11 and 26.1 – 26.3
• Paper / Purpur: 1.21 – 26.3
• Required: Fabric API (Fabric version only). The Paper version needs nothing else.
