whatever you set it to will show up on everyones computer, regardless of LAN or Online.

Or do you mean to change it while in the map, like the longer you play, it gets later in the day and gets darker?

Then they dont have the same version of the map as you. If you export the map with it as 1am then give everyone the same exported map, then they WILL have a night sky.

Oh i see, serverside. I dont think there is one, but the Readme files that Wilson includes with the custom scripts can tell you.

Changing the time of day dynamically (i.e through scripts) isnt possible.

Well, I am not sure it's impossible. Let me explain:

W3d beta of generals had that feature. Renegade is w3d so we might find a way to make it. Maybe E! can...

Generals and Renegade are totally different in that respect.
The code that is shared between Renegade and Generals is only a very small amount.

Renegade cant do dynamic lighting at all (which is essentially what this is).
Essentially, to do this would mean doing the same thing as "recalculate the vertex solve" (or whatever lighting setting it is in leveledit) every time the time of day/lighting was changed.
