I have my plaza set to “always night” in the game settings, but since the newest update it is appearing as daytime. Another player reported to me that this is happening to them as well.
I’ve found inconsistent ways to temporarily fix this issue until a plaza rejoin. Entering buildings seems to sometimes fix the problem, but it isn’t consistent from building to building. i.e. entering the bowling alley and going back outside didn’t change the plaza from daytime to nighttime, but entering the arcade via the trivia door and going back outside did change the plaza from daytime to nighttime.
What I expected to happen
My plaza to appear in the nighttime because of my settings
What happened
My plaza appearing in the daytime despite my settings.
I think Mac may have missed the point about my observation of how Halloween Plaza is the only time when the Plaza is permanently night time, but if he isn’t going to listen to feedback I’m not going to listen to his defences, simple as
The fact that Halloween Plaza being permanently in night mode shows that a fix is possible and be can be implemented
I’d enquire as to why the same method isn’t being applied for Summer and Winter Plazas
Either fix this or remove the setting from the menu entirely
The issue is the always night/day time setting collides with the overall seasonal lighting settings. When it’s Halloween the setting gets ignored, as we have it setup to make it always nighttime for Halloween. I haven’t been able to tackle the bug because I’ve been busy with some other more major issues, but this is high on my list of priorities.
This issue is also a little involved, there’s a lot of different lighting adjustments and tweaks the game does under different circumstances such as the overall theme, indoor/outdoor, and the user settings. I’m most likely going to have to refactor the system to fix the bug.
