Guides/All About Night

Night
Nights in don't starve is a big part of the game, and if the player doesn't stay near a light source he will get attacked by an invisible monster (called Charlie by Maxwell, Grue or the Night Monster. I will refer to him as Charlie) and killed.

How night affects the player while not near light:

 * The player will alert about Charlie being nearby and after ? seconds a loud noise and then taking a hit for ? hp and ? sanity. ? seconds later he will attack again for the same amount. (Need to confirm if armor absorb any of the damage)
 * ? sanity/min is drained while in the darkness.
 * Unable to pick up items or interact with objects you can't see.

How night affects the player while near light:

 * ? sanity/min is drained while near light during the night.

How night affects the world:

 * The animals (enter animals here) will go to sleep as soon as night starts and will wake up when night is over.
 * If the player walks nearby a sleeping Spider, Spider Queen, Killer Bee, Tallbird, Hound, then it will wake up and attack the player.
 * If the player attacks a sleeping Spider, Spider Queen, Bee, Killer Bee, Tallbird, Hound, Tree Guardian, Pig, Pig guardian then it and its nearby allies will wake up and attack the player.
 * If the player walks nearby a sleeping Koalefant or Winter Koalefant, it will wake up and start running away, but there is enough time to attack it with a melee weapon if the player goes straight for it. (A torch works)
 * The pig king will sleep, and will not be able to receive any gifts in exchance for gold.
 * Plants won't grow.
 * Meat won't dry.
