Hi,
Not sure how to approach it, but i would like to request help with adding color of the light for each of the states

enum LightState_t {
LIGHT_STATE_DAY,
LIGHT_STATE_NIGHT,
LIGHT_STATE_SUNSET,
LIGHT_STATE_SUNRISE,
};



static constexpr int32_t LIGHT_LEVEL_DAY = 250;
static constexpr int32_t LIGHT_LEVEL_NIGHT = 40;
static constexpr int32_t SUNSET = 1305;
static constexpr int32_t SUNRISE = 430;

LightState_t lightState = LIGHT_STATE_DAY;
uint8_t lightLevel = LIGHT_LEVEL_DAY;
int32_t lightHour = SUNRISE + (SUNSET - SUNRISE) / 2;
// (1440 minutes/day)/(3600 seconds/day)*10 seconds event interval
int32_t lightHourDelta = 1400 * 10 / 3600;

Would want it to rotate around similar array of colors, rather than just intensity of light.

I appreciate all help,

I think the easiest way to make it is to implement the colours palette as map<hour, colour> and when checking the light/updating the world time set the light colour from hardcoded 215 to the one from map[hour]. 🤔

the colors correspond exactly with the color palette of the image that I provide in the thread
you need to make sure you go to your config.lua and change this: defaultWorldLight = true change it to false: defaultWorldLight = false

When the server starts, the light intensity and color are set, and another event will update this every 10 minutes.

data/scripts/daynightcycle.lua
Lua: 
local lightInt = 255/12
local dayNightCycle = {[0]=8, [1]=8, [2]=8, [3]=8, [4]=8, [5]=15, [6]=15, [7]=22, [8]=100, [9]=214, [10]=206, [11]=206, [12]=200, [13]=200, [14]=200, [15]=199, [16]=194, [17]=159, [18]=81, [19]=44, [20]=38, [21]=44, [22]=1, [23]=1, [24]=8}
local function getLightLevel(hour)
    if hour <= 12 then return lightInt * hour end
    local light = lightInt * 12
    return light - (lightInt * math.abs(12 - hour))
end

local function setWorldLightByHour()
    local hour = tonumber(os.date("%H"))
    setWorldLight(getLightLevel(hour), dayNightCycle[hour])
    return true
end

local globalEvent = GlobalEvent("DayNightCycleEvent")
globalEvent.onThink = setWorldLightByHour
globalEvent:interval(1000 * 60 * 10)
globalEvent:register()

globalEvent = GlobalEvent("DayNightCycleStartup")
globalEvent.onStartup = setWorldLightByHour
globalEvent:register()

Note: colors are not exact as tibia does not support such a wide and precise color palette, but the palette that I configure in the script is very accurate, if someone else can provide some method or way to improve the precision of the colors, I would like to know it too ;)

Extra: if you prefer to have the default light intensity, you can change this: getLightLevel(hour) to the number 215, if it changes to 215 then you can remove the getLightLevel function without any problem
