Minecraft did that via phantoms. Certainly makes people irritable!

i shut that shit off using /gamerule doInsomnia = false
i fucking hate that entire mechanic
if i had my way, sleeping in a bed would do something else entirely such as:

  1. Present the option to create a backup save of the world snapshotted to that moment
  2. Restores satiety to the same level as your hunger bar but does not restore actual hunger
  3. Gives a "rested" buff of health boost/absorption, luck, haste, and night vision that will last almost until noon in-game. bright eyed and bushy tailed!
  4. perhaps all of the above.

I like phantoms AI but I hate how they are tied to insomnia AND they endlessly respawn effectively instantly so fighting them is entirely pointless.

If insomnia phantoms were required I'd limit them to say, 5 per night. Once all 5 are killed, no new ones spawn for that night.

That would turn them from a nuisance to an actual threat the player wants to fight
