Hi guys.

I want to ask for thing that is really needed for me.
Everyone talks about machinery. Nobody speaks about enviroment.

Want a long and terrible night. Something about 1/2/3 hours. Like Project Zomboid or something around. Longer day/night cycle.
Local nights are so short and dismal that so often it is not clear what time of day it is.
Would be great if duration of the day could be set.
Would be twice cooler if during sunset everything will be colored with scary reds and the shadows will be growing so long that even zergs will piss of fear.

But the most important is the length of night.

If you would tell me how to do this, I will do it by myself. Just tell how.

Something like this?

Oh thanks!

It's minimal set.
And I've forgotten most important: Clock!
It needs something to show daily time.

Ingame Clock -> AdvancedEquipment v0.3.7 & some other stuff

I would think you would have to adjust some parameters for accumulators for this to work better with the current balance of the game. Basically just increasing the capacity of accumulators by the factor you increase the night/day cycle. It would suck to have 30+ minute nights, and need to have masses of accumulators in order to make it through the night on solar power.
