Text description

Midnight Thoughts improves the mechanics of sleep, making it more rewarding and memorable. See thoughts, facts, nightmares while resting. Players who slept overnight receive the rest effect and their overall statistics from the last time they slept.

The mod is modpack-friendly, every feature can be disabled or customized

While you sleep, you will see random slides featuring facts, quotes, and much more. By default, slide data is sourced from a local database that supports 13 languages. For certain languages, you can enable the Useless Facts API in the mod's configuration settings to fetch slides from the internet, (More details can be found in the mod's wiki), or you can add your own facts, thoughts and nightmares!

The moon in the overlay always displays the phase that is currently in the game, there are 8 of them in total.

Each player has their own statistics, and everyone can see each other’s results. Results are displayed after sleep. The summary highlights the MVP - the most active player, along with personal bests and mini achievements. The default server theme can be set in the mod's config. Each player can choose their own theme. Four design themes are available: Vanilla, Classic, Tech, and Magic.

The mod adds a comfort system. When the player goes to bed, the player's rest level after sleep depends on the comfort level around the bed. The comfort level is determined by certain blocks, furniture, plants, etc., located around the bed. In addition to blocks that increase comfort, there are also blocks that decrease it.

Upon waking, the player enters the Rested state. It has up to five levels, each increasing effect strength and duration. The effect progresses through three phases, gradually weakening from phase 1 (strongest) to phase 3 (weakest).

Well Rested provides bonuses to speed, strength, and block mining speed, increases the player's HP, and also adds gradual health regeneration. The effect of the additional health and regeneration doesn't diminish over time, unlike other buffs.

When playing with friends, MVP always receives the most powerful buff, regardless of the conditions under which it was inactivated. MVP's buff lasts longer than the standard level 5 buff.

If the sleeping conditions are bad, the player will have nightmares, but if the sleeping conditions are terrible, the player will not be able to go to sleep at all.
