For what purpose? Nights really are short in Europe at summer. You might not have experienced it since you seem to live near the equator.

Anyway, I couldn't find any mods that would change the length of the night.

This was recommended to me recently - Realistic Lighting Mod - not sure if it's what you're looking for.

To make nights longer you need to modify these files: "def/env_data.sii", "def/climate/default/bad.sii", "def/climate/default/nice.sii", "def/climate/default/storm.sii" and change start-end hours of sun_profiles as also sunrise and sunset times (in env_data.sii).

I guess start_hour, end_hour in weather files, and sunrise_hour and sunset_hour in environment. I only checked them by comparing different winter mods, which change sunrise and sunset times to 7:00-16:00. Try experimenting a little. I may have some time to look more into these files tomorrow.

It's right there in his message, but here:
/def/climate/default/

and for the environment def:
/def/

hmm.. @orb, I just checked, there is *no* 'storm.sii' file in the game...

Well, if you check the date of the thread, you'll see it was created more than a year ago and there have been changes to the game since then.


The game's weather and lighting system changed last year. The default way of changing the time of sunrise and sunset now is by setting the day in year in /def/env_data.sii, and it now depends on your current latitude in the game.
