# \ud83c\udf19 NightSkipper \u2014 Smart Night Skip for Minecraft<\/p>\n
**NightSkipper** is a lightweight and reliable plugin that automatically skips the night
\nwhen a **configured percentage of players** in a world are sleeping. Supports **EssentialsX AFK**, **vanish**, and **spectator mode**.<\/p>\n
## \u2728 Features<\/p>\n
\u2705 **Flexible world configuration** \u2014 choose which worlds the night skip works in
\n\u2705 **Customizable sleep percentage** \u2014 from 0% to 100% of players required to skip night
\n\u2705 Supports **AFK and Vanish players** from EssentialsX
\n\u2705 Players in **Spectator mode** or with the `essentials.sleepingignored` permission are ignored
\n\u2705 Sleep progress displayed via **ActionBar**
\n\u2705 Custom chat and ActionBar messages using MiniMessage
\n\u2705 Anti-spam protection to prevent repeated skipping
\n\u2705 Full **multi-world** support
\n\u2705 `\/nskipper reload` command to reload the config without restarting the server<\/p>\n
## \u2699\ufe0f How It Works<\/p>\n
1. A player goes to sleep \u2192 everyone in the world sees an ActionBar:
\n `Sleeping: 1\/4 | Needed: 1`
\n2. When the required fraction of players is asleep (or AFK) \u2014 countdown begins:
\n – Message appears: **”Night is being skipped…”**
\n – After **~3 seconds**, the night is skipped.
\n3. The world transitions to morning, storms and rain are cleared.<\/p>\n
