How To Enable or Disable Sleeping on Your Schedule 1 Server

Note:

In multiplayer Schedule 1, sleeping allows players to fast-forward through the night cycle to clear fatigue and skip directly to the next morning. On dedicated servers, sleeping mechanics are controlled by allowSleeping and ignoreGhostHostForSleep under the [gameplay] section of server_config.toml. Because the headless dedicated server maintains an internal loopback host (ClientId 0 / Ghost Host), ignoreGhostHostForSleep must remain enabled (true) so that the server does not wait for the phantom host to occupy a bed before advancing time.

1. Log In to Your Panel

2. Select the ‘File’ Tab

---

3. Select the ‘UserData’ Folder

---

4. Select the ‘server_config.toml’ File

---

5. Review and Configure the Sleep Parameter Schema

1. Locate the [Gameplay] Header.

2. Configure the sleep parameters according to your server’s gameplay rules:

Parameter Key	Setting Value	Effect on Server
allowSleeping	true (Co-op) / false (PvP/RP)	Master switch allowing players to interact with beds to advance the clock to morning.
ignoreGhostHostForSleep	true	Critical for dedicated servers. Prevents the internal loopback client (ClientId 0) from blocking sleep consensus.

7. Restart Your Server

8. How Sleeping Behaves In-Game

When allowSleeping = true:

When all online human players interact with a bed at night, the screen fades to black and the clock advances directly to morning (07:00 AM), resetting player fatigue.

When allowSleeping = false:

Beds function only as save points or cosmetic props; the time skip mechanic is disabled, forcing persistent real-time progression through the night.
