Any way to make night pass faster?
Can't see anything at night even with spotlights all over my vehice and after getting stuck and having to dig it out a few times and wanting to know if there is a way to skip the night cycle on a planet. Or am I expected to gather tons of mats during the day and throw it all in the refinery at night and just wait for dawn again like that?

Is there another way? I'm asking for your help more experienced engineers!

Alt+F12
click on Render tab and then Ambiance or something, and then you can change the daytime on the right bar

Night never happens at the north and south 'poles' of the planets.
You can have perminant sunrise/sunset light that way ^.^

I might just tear my base down and move then since when i pressed alt+f12 it didnt do anything. And I recently built a wheeled vehicle that is probably capable of doing the trip and carrying everything with some minor modifications

You can disable sun rotation entirely, but you might need to relocate to the light side of your planet if you're not already there. Alternatively, you can turn the orbital period down so you only have 30-minute days and nights.
