FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

Hello everyone,

beds have been added to the default game!

Using beds allows to skip the night; to sleep rightclick the bed.

If playing in singleplayer mode the night gets skipped immediately.
If playing on server you get shown how many other players are in bed too. When all players are sleeping the night gets skipped aswell. Also the night skip can be forced if more than 50% of the players are lying in bed and use this option.

Also the beds change the respawning. If you have slept in bed (means skipped a night) your respawn point is set to the beds location and you will respawn there after death.

You can disable the respawn at beds by setting "enable_bed_respawn = false" in minetest.conf


There are two types of beds, a simple shaped one and a more fancy shaped one. Below the crafting recipes:
Simple bed:


Fancy bed:


Compatibility to existend bed mods:
- PilzAdam's beds mod: the red bed gets and all spawnpoints get converted
- BlockMen's beds mod: full compatiblity

great, but is there a option to disable the bed respawn and use the static spawn point instead?

thanks for help

Yay, finally beds in the vanilla game!

Sweet, this will potentially help me with my new mod as the system for sleep and spawn will be in the default game.

Currently not, but feel free to open an issue on github for that ;)

This is great, but the only thing I can think about right now is why the fancy bed seems easier to make than the normal bed.

Yes, I noticed that too.
Maybe it's required to create a pull request on the MTG repo to fix this.

How about the same recipe as "Simple Bed" except with a Plank above White Wool?

Finally. What took so long?

README claims that
while recipes are pretty "rigid"
Planning to change into group:wool or to add different texture for each colour? In that case, is't PilzAdam's [beds] already good?

Updated:
- Bed respawn can be disabled by setting "enable_bed_respawn = false" in minetest.conf
- Crafting recipe for fance bed is changed to "simple bed + stick" (see picture first post)
- Outdated/wrong Readme updated

Now its perfect! :) thanks a lot

Thanks for adding the fancy bed as well! That's a very nice one. It's good to have more furniture in the basic game. I'd also love to have the chair and table from 3dforniture/homedecor. They do make Minetest special.

it seems kinda weird to have two beds, i was thinking about maybe keeping one or the other.

… but I want green beds! :D

RGB coloring looks like the best solution.
