I would have guessed that it would condense at the point of warm/cold so the top layer of sleeping bag/blanket???? If you were covered by a waterproof layer it would condense under that.
(Like the walls /windows of the rig.)
Just below you would be warm and deeper into the mattress where it got cold would be on the other side of the vapor barrier.
AT , your hammock had you up in the air , the warm/cold interface was at that waterproof barrier and moisture above you probably evaporated.....
My mattress is enclosed by a waterproof cover to keep it from absorbing moisture from the wall/window it rests against , I never find dampness below me but I did notice one time when I covered my sleeping bags with some plastic to protect me from a small roof leak from my antenna crank and in the morning the underside of the plastic was quite wet. And the top of the outer bag was a little damp too.
\edit/ I remember also, back when I used an air mattress it was dry too.
I guess the OP could experiment to find out what happens.
