Getting started¶

This page walks you through your first night with the mod. Not installed yet? See Installation.

Your first night¶

1. Open the Insomniac's Handbook. It is given to you the first time you join a world. Lost it? Craft another from a book and any bed. It covers everything on these pages, in game.
2. Try to sleep with a monster nearby. Instead of the game's line, a card tells you what's wrong and what to do, the monsters responsible glow, and arrows point to the ones you can't see. Why can't I sleep?
3. Hide. Sneak and use a bed with empty hands to crawl under it. Keep still until whatever was after you gives up. Hiding
4. Sleep, and see how well you slept. In the morning a card scores your night and says what mattered most. Nights
5. Check on yourself. In your inventory, the little moon by your player opens how you've been sleeping. Stay up a whole day and a moon appears on your screen, filling up as the days pass.

Make it yours¶

Everything can be turned off or adjusted, from the glow's color to night terrors. Players change their own client settings; server owners decide what everyone on the server gets. See Configuration.
