The <code>sleepEfficiency</code> attribute is specific to the bed. In this case a value of 1 means the player can sleep half the day. The hay bed has a value of 0.58333333, which means the player can sleep for 12 * 0.58333333 = ~7 in-game hours. Change the value to anything between 0...1 and start the game or leave and re-enter your singleplayer world. Next time you sleep in the bed you will be skipping that amount of time. | The <code>sleepEfficiency</code> attribute is specific to the bed.
