After... After Dark. Building and night lights.

[spacemonkey]

So, after the expansion we will need to start a new game? The mod buildings will already have the assets for night time or the author will need to upgrade it? I really want to start a new game today but.. if I need to remove or replace the buildings that I will be download soon then I think it's better to wait the expansion and the nighttime buildings... Thanks.

all asset must be update to take effet with the new night light, so yeah it can be a bit annoying to remplace all the building when the extension come out

Plan to start a new game but keep the old saves, even with the Dev Diary it's still not clear what will happen.

All CO created Assets should be fine.

If you've downloaded a lot of Workshop Assets, they may or may not look a little strange after the DLC is released until updated by Modders

Just to tag onto this topic(I hope you dont' mind seems as though it's been answered already), anyone know how the actual day/night cycle is going to work when it's release?

Before release, CO stated one of the reasons they didn't implement it is that it would've looked like a strobe light due to the speed the game runs at which was logical.

Is the whole game pace being changed to suit this new feature(doubt it).

Is it just going to randomly change from day to night?

will it run on a monthly cycle to make it more logical with how fast the simulation runs??

Will we now have a rush hour?

so many questiond!! lol..

Thank you guys. Guess I will just start a new game and have only a few mods and buildings.

Oh, and no problem at all, Ric666... there's some good questions.

Alright, but this update from the modders will be automatic by Steam? I mean, they just need to update the files or they will need to upload a complete different file (which I will need to manually download again)? If the building update will be automatic then it's ok

If they change the existing Asset it will update automatically if you've subscribed.

If the create a brand new asset you will need to subscribe
