A small machine that will do day and night cycles. Uses pure mathematics to calculate the sky color so modify the formulas in the square to change up the values. Quick guide:
Change the numbers after the + to make the days/nights longer or shorter or change the sky colors.
Change the divide number to slow down (make the numbers larger) or speed up (make the numbers less) the whole cycle. The numbers must be the same or it looks bad.
Feel free to use this in your scenes as long as you credit me.

Instead of using the onCollied script you could have put the color changing code into App.background.skyColor.

App.background.skyColor =[sin(Sim.time / 10) - 0.30000001, sin(Sim.time / 10) - 0.30000001, sin(Sim.time / 10) + 0.5, 1]

When I tried that it didnt work. Did it work for you?
EDIT: Yeah, that only changes the color based on the value of the time when the command was issued. The collide is necessary to make it update itself.

Sorry, I meant to say that you need to put curly's around it like so.

App.background.skyColor = {[sin(Sim.time / 10) - 0.30000001, sin(Sim.time / 10) - 0.30000001, sin(Sim.time / 10) + 0.5, 1]}

Even though the onCollide is not need pretty good scene. 10/10 :D
