You can just plop a bed down wherever and sleep through the night in peace. Apparently this has been the case for over a decade, and all those temporary shelters I made were completely unnecessary.

    To be clear though, if you’re out and about and a mob agros on you while you are trying to sleep they will attack you. Being in a bed doesn’t make you invisible. Its just that mobs don’t spawn next to your bed anymore. Source: Spider attacked me while I was sleeping a couple days ago.

    God, I still remember when, if there was a spawnable block within a certain distance from your bed, a mob would spawn and wake you up in the middle of the night, lol.

    They will still attack you if you try to sleep next to a mob, though, and you’ll be forced out of bed if they hit you before you fall asleep.

      Yup, but once you do fall asleep time skips ahead to morning. No mob behavior is simulated.

      I was watching a streamer play and he would place his bed outside as soon as the sun went down, before any mobs spawned. I kept wondering why he was tempting fate like that, which prompted me to look it up and find out it was changed in 2011.

      I wonder what other outdated habits I’m still holding on to…
