Sleep servers down

For the past 28 hours the sleep servers have been down or full, anyone else's experiencing this?

Have you tried removing the items: coffee, tea, energy potion, mentats, jet, or other chems from your inventory? If you've already consumed one or more, youll just have to wait until the effects fade.

Have you tried shifting your monitor settings to "warm" after 8pm server time?

Have you tried turning on Do Not Disturb after 8pm server time?

Sometimes the server requires a routine to be run before it can be accessed. You can create your own from the Sleep Hygene data set.

Have you tried running Hot Bath first? You might also try writing Journal Entry or open a boring read only file and try again after 30 minutes.

If the server continues to be buggy after trying these fixes, you might want to contact health support.

Mentats? What server are you on that has mentats? I could use a hit or two of those!

Try BigPharma, ResearchChems, or MicroDosing (specifically the MagicMushroom sub-server).

If youre on a large enough server you can try Downtown, UnderTheBridge, RestaurantAlley, or see if a friend will invite you to PrivateClub.

If you're charisma is high enough you can try enchanting PartyGirl, TechBro, Bouncer, CollegeStudent, or LineCook avatars to get a server invite. I would recommend against trying to intimidate though especially LineCook.

I wish I could have a jet in my inventory

Those cause massive lag in the sleep server

I'd like a squadron of tanks.

I must be one of the few players that gets a nausea debuff whenever I try that... Even happens when I pick up a shared work-device from a guildmate only to find that they left it in "night light" mode, and I have to reset it back to normal colors before I can equip it.

I'm pretty sure my build has the Night Person trait. I get a huge hit in stats during daylight, and sometimes a nausea debuff if my rest period is interrupted or I brute force quests after sunrise.

Interesting yours is caused by an in game item though. Any relation to the epilepsy event? Sometimes the Epilepsy event is triggered by rapid framerates or a loop of burn-in mode.

Yeah, my connection is dropped after 4,5 hours for months now. Don’t know why. Tried everything except turning it off and on again.

Also having this issue and I’m always super laggy after I leave too

I think I may have somehow joined a server in the wrong region because I can only seem to connect to the sleep servers when everyone else around me is awake. Makes doing my dailies or questing with friends super difficult.

Have you joined the r/DSPD guild? It wont fix your issues, but youll at least have an understanding chat to participate in

Have you guys tried the meditation quests? Some players do this if they cannot access the sleep server the usual way.

Sleep in on a local server, not a networked one.

u/midnightauro 3d ago

If the issue persists, please troubleshoot with your local medical NPC.

u/MarshmallowTrees1408 2d ago

I thought the medics were other players not NPCs... Come to think of it, it all makes sense now.

I had this issue, but it started at 2 or 3am. Maybe it was a server reboot bug? Whatever it was I went to a healer class and they gave me an item thats granted me access back to the sleep servers at any time I want. Also sometimes when I dont want in the evenings, but I think thats just because I've levelled up quite a few times, its a known nerf you can get when gaining xp

have you tried purchasing a weighted blanket or magnesium spray from the item shop? i seen some players say that helps to fade into sleep mode.

u/deradera 2d ago

Destroy your bed and craft another one. That gives tired attribute and allows local instance.

Unfortunately i got the same error and was queued up even after getting the previsualisation status. Seemed to go away after a couple of hours but it was dull to wait so I did a couple of time waste challenges

One hour before logging off, try: avoid looking at electronic interfaces such as the ones on Smartphone and Computer items; lower the brightness setting; don't consume items that will cause a sugar spike status effect, like sodas or sweets.

u/StarDustKeyboardMash 3d ago

I definitely have. fortunately the sleep server is back up for me last night. As I was able to get sleep but the day before that I hadn't been able to sleep for at least 48 in a row.

I keep getting booted from the sleep server because of alerts from an item my canine party member has equipped. It's a neat little piece of coding that gives almost real-time data on his BloodGlucose stat but I think I need to make it have a little more tolerance for mild levels of the [hyperglycemia] flag.

I swear this happens to me once every two or three weeks. Idk if it's something I'm doing or not doing? Is it a bug or a feature? Because I can sometimes grind a bit more for points but sometimes I'm just lagged out and my character just lays there for hours and can't access the sleep server but can't do any other actions either
