Description from the author on Modrinth

Thid mod adds a chance for a violent night event called Purge Night, where villagers hide in their homes, woods and caves. Not from the usual monsters but from their own kind.

  • By default, every day has a 8% chance for the night to be the purge night.
  • If you need to, you should end the purge night via /purgenight end command. Don't use /time set/add.
  • Purge Night blood, corpses and wanderers despawn after some time.

Requires: Psycho Villagers.

Optional: Better Days. (If you'd like change the purge night duration).

Possible issues

If you during the purge night, you used /time set/add, the config may not revert so you end up with wanderers spawning everywhere outside purge night day and other issues. To fix this you should either type /purgenight end; then /purgenight begin; then /purgenight end. OR just delete/reset Psycho Villagers config.
You can clear wanderers via /purgenight clearWanderers, it is not necessary though since they despawn naturally.
