I am using MOG time system and Thomas Edison Lights by Soulre
I am trying to figure out how I can set it so when a certain time of day hits, all the outside lights come on.
Im assuming I will be using a common event and some variables but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to even attempt it lol.
Any help is much appreciated.

I have it set up like this and its having the opposite effect. No matter what I set the = or > or < too.
the lights turn out when its night time :S

please give links to both scripts so that we can check how they work.
And it is usually also a good idea not to crop event screenshots as that sometimes removes important information.

Oh weird, first time ive used a snipping tool and I thought I captured the whole thing lol
Lighting system

Time system
https://atelierrgss.wordpress.com/rmv-time-system/

What ive tried doing is set the common event to a switch which is triggered in parallel on the page with the lights.
It should trigger the common event which says "if the time variable is equal to or more than 18" (7pm) I want to turn the light switch on.
once I figure that out ill know how to make it so they turn off in the morning.

Im wondering if a simple timer would be easier :S

I GOT IT!
Turns out the variables in the help file are one digit off from what they actually are.
Moghunters stuff is mostly in spanish which can make it a bit harder to figure out.
Thanks for your help @Andar

Holy stink, where have I been? Well, I started my temporary job this week. So less time to spend on game design... :(
Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
Do you Find Tilesetting or Looking for Tilesets/Plugins more fun? Personally I like making my tileset for my Game (Cretaceous Park TM) xD
