22 Simple Bed is the cheapest bed in Windrose, available from the very first Building Panel session. It is the gateway item for the optional sleep mechanic: a roofed Simple Bed plus the Q interact key fast-forwards in-game time, which is the only way to skip night without waiting it out.

66 BuildingMaterialsNotesSimple Bed5 Plant Fiber + 5 WoodBuilding Panel (B) > Storage and Beds. Requires placement under a roof to be usable.
77 Both materials are first-day-trivial. Plant Fiber drops from any cut plant (use a shovel for the bulk-pile trick) and Wood comes from scattered logs along the beach. A starting character can place a Simple Bed inside the first hour of play.

99 Roof Requirement
1010  
1111 The bed will not accept the sleep interact prompt unless a roof tile sits directly above it. Tarp tiles, leaf-roof tiles, and full timber roof tiles all satisfy the requirement. There is also a clearance requirement around the bed itself: avoid placing the bed under a low shelf, canopy, or stair lid, because the player needs visible standing space on at least one side to trigger the lie-down animation.

1313 How to Sleep
1414  
1515 Place the Simple Bed under a roof, inside the bonfire footprint of the main camp.Walk up to the side of the bed and press Q. The lie-down animation plays, and the world clock fast-forwards.Sleep does not heal, does not restore Stamina beyond normal regeneration, and does not pause the game for other crew. It only skips time, which is most useful for skipping a hostile night cycle on the beach or to sync up with a daytime quest event.

1717 Bed vs Tent
1818  
1919 A Simple Bed in the home base is for time-skip. A Tent on a far island is for revival point reassignment. Both are cheap, both are constructable from beach-collected materials, and both are usually placed early. They serve different roles, so most camps end up with at least one Simple Bed under the roof and one or two Tents distributed across exploration islands.

2323 Placing the bed in the open. The sleep interact prompt will not appear without a roof tile directly above.Placing the bed under a low canopy with no clearance on any side. The lie-down animation cannot start, even though the roof check passes.Expecting sleep to heal. It does not. For passive heal-back to max HP, sit by a bonfire instead. Sleep is purely a time-skip tool.

3131 Like other furniture inside the Bonfire radius, a Simple Bed contributes to the Comfort System. It grants +1 in the Bed category. Comfort within a single category does not stack, so placing a second bed does not raise the bonus; to climb the comfort score you instead add items from other categories such as Carpets and rugs, seating, and lighting. Upgrading to a higher-tier bed swaps the same +1 for better looks rather than a larger bonus.
