Lights not working in daytime?
like the title says, non of the lights work in daytime in my game. they turn off between 7.00 / 7.20 am depending on the light.

I get that street lights arent on in daytime but what about the normal lights. Id like to color my coaster with lights (even if they are not that bright in daylight, thats fine)

anyone else got no working lights during daytime?

Lights don't turn on in the day time, you won't be able to see them anyways.

What you are describing is the intended feature of the game. Cities Skylines impliments this feature in the same way.

Cities have lights because they're needed - so they turn on -when- they're needed. Theme parks have lights because they look attractiive. And they need to look attractive all the time, day or night. I've -never- seen a theme park that didn't have daytime lights.

The only way that I know of to get lights to turn on during the day time is to throw them inside of a cave or put terrain over whatever you're building so it blocks out the sun. You might be able to get some effect in a fully enclosed building, but it won't be the same like at night or in a dark cave.

i tried placing them in a closed building but that didnt help. doesnt work in shadows aswell. the issue isnt that the sun is to bright, its that they simply turn off. the only thing that works when i looked at youtube is placing it below sea level en closing it with dirt.

street lamps shouldnt be on at daytime but colored lights should. every themepark has them for the queue/ride to help with the theme.

they could for example have an option to not shut off at daytime
having same problem im trying to make a forest with a soft glow of orange or whatever color i pick but once the lights get past a certain point they stop working

possibly try adding in a 'display sequencer' then select all the lights to a display group within the sequencer and set to continuous activation? Might work.
