Enjoy Nights! 🌙

Transform your Minecraft nights from something you skip into an intense, rewarding, and atmospheric survival experience.

Tired of players instantly skipping the night with a bed? Annoyed by annoying Phantoms? Want the moon phases to actually matter and fear the dark again? Enjoy Nights! reworks night mechanics with tactical bed resting, dynamic lunar phases, mineral drops, dark area paranoia, and periodic Blood Moon sieges where monsters can break down your doors!

✨ Features Overview

🛏️ Beds as Tactical Recovery Stations (No Night Skip!)

• Sleeping no longer skips the night. You can no longer fast-forward the daylight cycle.
• When you sleep in a bed, you rest for 10 seconds before automatically standing up.
• Finishing your rest grants a 1 minute and 30 seconds (90s) recovery buff:
  • Regeneration II (rapid healing)
  • Resistance I (damage reduction)
  • Saturation (fills hunger bars)
• Fair-Play Anti-Abuse Cooldown (180s / 3 minutes):
  • Once you rest in bed, you cannot sleep again until 180 seconds (3 minutes) have passed (bedRestCooldownSeconds = 180).
  • If you try to sleep before the cooldown expires, the bed prevents sleeping and an action bar message shows the remaining seconds.
• Use your bed as a pre-combat station before heading out into the dangerous night!

👻 Farewell, Phantoms! (Phantom Suppression)

• Phantoms are completely disabled from spawning naturally due to insomnia.
• The internal rest timer is automatically maintained so you can stay awake for hundreds of days without ever being harassed by flying nightmares.

💎 Enhanced Mineral Mob Drops

• Under a Full Moon (and Blood Moons), standard monsters (Zombies, Skeletons, Creepers, Spiders, etc.) drop additional mineral fragments:
  • Raw Iron & Iron Nuggets (35% & 25% chance)
  • Lapis Lazuli, Amethyst Shards & Emeralds (up to 20% chance)
  • Diamonds (1% chance / configurable)

🌓 Dynamic Lunar Phases

• 🌑 New Moon (Phase 4 - Every 8 Nights):
  • Atmospheric darkness: reduced view distance and dark fog when exposed outdoors.
  • Stealth Bonus: Reduces the range at which mobs can spot you by 60%! Perfect for stealthy supply runs.
• 🌕 Full Moon (Phase 0 - Every 8 Nights):
  • Monsters become hyper-aggressive with extended follow range (+16 blocks).
  • 50% chance for monsters to spawn with Strength and Speed potion effects.
  • Anti-Exploit Creeper Mechanics: Creepers do not receive potion effects (preventing permanent lingering potion clouds upon explosion); instead, they have a 5% chance to spawn as Charged Creepers (fullMoonChargedCreeperChance = 0.05) with +15% movement speed!
  • Slaying these powered monsters rewards 3x Experience!

🕯️ Enclosed Dark Area Paranoia

• Hiding in a hole or bunker isn't completely safe. If you stand still for more than 3 minutes (180s) in an enclosed, dark area (0 block light, under a roof) during the night:
  • Paranoia sets in: you receive Weakness and visual darkness pulses.
  • You will hear disturbing auditory hallucinations (cave rumbles, distant creeper hisses, phantom screeches, Warden heartbeats).
  • Moving around, placing torches, or going outside clears the paranoia.

🩸 Blood Moon Sieges & Destructive AI

• Every 10 nights (configurable on the server from 1 to 365 days), the Blood Moon rises with an ominous announcement and a blood-red sky.
• Universal Shader-Compatible Atmosphere: Features a blood-red screen vignette overlay (100% visible even with shaders like Complementary Unbound or Iris), floating crimson ember particles (CRIMSON_SPORE), and dense crimson fog.
• All monsters gain Strength II, Resistance, and Speed.
• Charged Creepers (25% chance): Creepers have a 25% chance to spawn powered (bloodMoonChargedCreeperChance = 0.25) without dropping lingering potion clouds.
• Intelligent Siege AI:
  • Blood Scent: During the Blood Moon, zombies sense players through walls and doors (up to 32 blocks) without losing target when you enter a house.
  • Breaching Barricades: If you barricade yourself inside, zombies will actively break wooden blocks (doors, trapdoors, planks, logs, fences) and dirt/dust blocks (dirt, sand, gravel) with authentic hit and break sounds!
  • Anti-Mountain Logic: Zombies are smart enough to recognize mountain slopes and walkable terrain; they will never break hillside steps and will only destroy real obstacles blocking their path to you.
  • Controlled Spawning: Features extra companion spawns and periodic siege waves capped at 16 nearby mobs to prevent server lag or overwhelming swarms.
