New development. Morning time of day with night time lighting is no longer plaguing me. Before, nothing would effect the lighting/time of day issue. There have been no game updates and I've made no further attempts to fix the issue. I loaded the game today (automatically in evening where I last left it long ago, paused immediately and jumped to manage worlds per usual) and lots entered in Build Mode were set in evening. Lighting was evening, time of day evening. I have not played in live mode at all since my initial post. I went into to live mode and played thru to morning. Jumped back into an unoccupied lot in a different world in build mode, and it was morning light and morning time of day. Tested this further: saved game, closed game, repaired, restarted and reloaded, and still morning. Since when does time of day in live mode effect unoccupied lots (or any lots) entered in build mode?? I recall entering in build mode always being morning (maybe it was afternoon? but it was light out all the time) time of day. Is this the new normal?? Did I miss something?
