7 Days of Insomnia (Immersive Sleeping)

What this mod is

A sleeping system aiming to be realistic, immersive, and fun, mainly for those who seek to enhance the survival aspects of the game.

What this mod is not

Simply a quick way to skip the night, which is something you may be after if you mostly enjoy the looter-shooter/sandbox aspects of the game. While skipping the night is possible with this mod, there are better mods for that out there if that's all you care about.

Important notes about time-skipping in V1. 5. 0. 0+

Time-skipping supports up to 12 players. Servers with a Max Players setting (ServerMaxPlayerCount) of 13 or more will not skip time when players sleep.

If you play solo and want time to be skipped when you sleep, set Server Enabled to Offline, as seen in the image.

If your group is smaller than 13 people and you want time to be skipped, set Max Players (or ServerMaxPlayerCount in dedicated servers) to the size of your group, otherwise less time will be skipped than you expect.

Features

• [](New!) Time is gradually skipped when you sleep, and the amount of time skipped this way is dynamically adjusted based on the maximum number of players in that server. This is now the default behavior. No need to install an optional patch for this anymore.[/]

  [](New!) Effects are dynamically adjusted to your chosen 24-hour cycle. No need to install separate patches for this anymore either.[/]

  []Server-side.[/]

  []EAC-friendly.[/]

  []Designed with multiplayer in mind (but works the same in single player).[/]

  []Not overpowered or punishing, and has built-in mechanisms against abuse that don't hinder the gameplay otherwise.[/]

  []Realistic but prioritizing fun over realism.[/]

  []Designed to be as compatible as possible with other mods out of the box.[/]

  []Sleep helps you recover from injuries and infections, not just regular damage, with limitations, at the cost of a little hunger and thirst.[/]

  []You cannot see and your hearing is impaired while you sleep.[/]

  []You can sleep on bedrolls, beds, couches, mattresses, and other types of blocks might be added in the future. Beds from other mods are also supported.[/]

  []Sleeping on good quality beds increases the healing rates.[/]

  []Random chance of snoring attracts nearby zombies to your location. Nearby players can also hear the snoring, and get ready for the consequences...[/]

  []Integrates with the new challenge system from A22/1. 0, adding 10 new sleep-related challenges (see pictures)[/]

  []Implements sleep as a new need system with its own rules, but it is fairly forgiving.[/]

  []Adds new sleep-related status effects, including an Alertness buff that triggers whenever you get attacked (simulating a fight-or-flight response), Sleep Deprivation, Severe Sleep Deprivation, Insomnia, a Refreshed status (after uninterrupted sleep), and more (see pictures for more info).[/]

  []Uses various visual and sound effects for immersion.[/]

  []Adds 2 new items: Sedatives and Stimulants. You can find them in loot and traders, or craft them at the chemistry table.[/]

  []I went ahead and translated my ridiculous ingame descriptions into all 12 languages supported by the game. Translations are by no means great but hey, I am only human... (for now). Gern geschehen, de nada, de rien, prego, どういたしまして, 천만에요, nie ma za co, Пожалуйста, rica ederim, 不客气, 不客氣. [/]
