It would be really cool if the time of day where you are at irl showed in the sky. The sky would be a different color depending on the time of day it is in your location.

i was thinking about this, and have it where day time, Elemental schools get a +5 boost in stats
night spiritual gets +5, while dusk and dawn balance, astral and shadow gets it... so it will really make you choose when to fight with what spells....

That would be neat! The Commons or Olde Town at night, ooo.

How about night versions of the area themes as well?

I was thinking about this, and I think that this feature would be absolutely incredible.

Currently in Wizard101 the sky doesn't even change at all. Wizard City is constantly in daytime, Marleybone and Grizzleheim constantly night, etc etc. It doesn't provide variety and is really rather boring.

Even if the day-night cycles weren't synchronized to computer time, it would be nice to watch the sky change. Take Minecraft, the day-night cycles are only twenty minutes long; but it still provides that wondrous feel of wonder (lol) as the lighting in the area changes gradually.

Great idea this would be a nice to be added but one problem what about the miday estates and the variations there.

This would require redoing all the graphics for the entire game. Way to much work for a downsized staff and offers no benefit for the huge cost it would be to KI.

I think that this would be a neat addition for some areas, but yeah some areas like Nightside are just generally all around better at night. If KI adds this that would be awesome, but I also agree with SeeThe42 that this isn't the most necessary thing either.

I don't see how this would require redoing all of the game's graphics. Simply a few more frame strips for day/night cycles and some time code shouldn't be extremely difficult? (That's just my assessment of what it would take, though.)

or make actual worlds stay put, but homes owner can decide his/her time of sky
