Changing the sky in your house/castle

Another of my older ideas that I had was the one where you can change the kind of sky you have in your castle/house.

There are many castles/houses that this idea may not work with such as the Sunken Palace which is under water and the Celestial Observatory which is hovering in space above what I assume is Celestia.

But maybe some new houses (and maybe some old houses too) could have big objects that (when you activate them) change the sort of sky you have outside. for example, a house with a Wizard City sky like the Massive Fantasy Palace may have one of those objects, and this object may turn the Wizard City sky to a Marleybone night sky.

What do you think?

That sounds amazing! With my Acropolis I'd love to see it at night, it'd look great.

there's only one problem with that. they would have to completely recreate the castle/home with different shading and textures of a deferent type of light hitting objects

I love this idea! I'd relish having the Grizzleheim sky at my castle.

Hmm true...I think it's worth it though. This sky changing should also extend to worlds like Dragonspyre as well.

I personally love this idea-as I am totally obsessed with housing! Changing the sky could really help with decorations and I personally would like it to be night time in my Massive Fantasy Palace

Actually that's what where I came up with the idea, I wanted a different sky in my Massive Fantasy Palace.

That sounds like a fun idea! I don't know the technical limitations of doing that but they have kind of started that with the Arcane Builder's Bundle. It has three different houses with subsequent purchases of the same bundle. I actually have the second iteration and therefore have Midday Estate and Meadows at Dusk on my Balance. I don't really like the game mechanics of Pirate, but the Worlds are epic looking! Skyways included!
