Programmable Sleep Clock v3.31
RainbowTigress:
Is that 10 pm MST?

Seperate question -- OFB introduced some new beds that don't quite match the existing ones as far as comfort/energy levels. Plus, I'm a sucker for custom beds, which also sometimes don't exactly match the Maxis defaults. What's the "formula" to figure out how to set the sleep clock for a bed that's not in the RTFM list?

Guess conservatively unless you happen to want to do a SimPE rip or someone tells you the exact value.
In practice, given the allowance for navigational delays, the difference tends not to be great as long as you hit the general ballpark figure.

I've always gone by trial and error... eg. if the bed is listed as a 4 energy, then I start at the lowest rating in the E4 category... if the Sim's energy is filled more than an hour before their wake time, then I go up one more rating, etc. until the Sim appears to get just enough sleep.

Thank you both! I've been doing that, in a way -- using the setting for a bed that's close to what the custom/new bed has. But the 'full energy an hour before waking' is a good yardstick.
