📋 About This Mod
This mod gives four options for the duration of the Sleep condition for the Sleep spell, 4, 6, 8, and 10 turns. I am not far into the game so I don't have any higher level spells like Glyph of Warding: Sleep or Eyebite(if it's even in the game). Please let me know if there are instances where the duration isn't affected by this change and I will try and update the mod to include those as optional files. For context, D&D 5e has the duration of Sleep set at 10 turns which I'll be using.

If you're downloading with Vortex Mod Manager, I haven't tested it but I've heard you can click Download With Manager instead of Download Manually and the file should work. I'll try troubleshooting that once the files uploaded.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Gives you flexibility to pick the exact duration you want, from 4 to 10 rounds.
- Tiny mod, easy to install and doesn't bloat your load order.
- Decent community support with 85 endorsements and 1,735 downloads.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects the Sleep spell, so if you wanted other sleep effects changed, this won't do it.
- No documentation on compatibility with other spell overhaul mods, so you might need to test.
- Last updated in August 2023, so it might not be compatible with the latest game patches.
For Baldur's Gate 3 players who find the default Sleep duration too short and want more control over combat crowd control. If you're a spellcaster who relies on Sleep, this is a handy tweak. Skip if you're looking for broader spell changes or if you're on the latest patch and worried about compatibility.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to download only one of the four variants to avoid conflicts.
- If you're using other spell mods, test this in a save before relying on it in a serious playthrough.
- Check the mod page for any patch notes regarding game version compatibility.
