If I change color, azimuth, etc of the Sun object, how would I simulate a click of the Apply button (server-sided)?

Just delete and re-create it. Same for the skybox if you're looking to tamper with that too.

To literally simulate the apply button (must be a listen server, not dedicated):

Code: [Select]

tree();

InspectTreeView.onSelect(%sun);
InspectFields.setAllGroupStateScript(%sun,1);
InspectStaticcolor0_16.setValue("0.6 0.6 0.6 1");
InspectStaticambient0_16.setValue("0.5 0.5 0.5 1");
InspectApply();

canvas.popDialog(InspectDlg);

There's supposedly an inspectPostApply method but it's never worked for me.

to simulate the apply button, i normaly go and find the console command with the gui editor :D

Is there any way to do this on dedicated servers?

transmitDataBlocks();

No, that function does not fix it.
Secondly, that announces a global message.

Nevermind, found it myself.

Code: [Select]

   if(!isObject(Sun)) {
      for(%i=0;%i<MissionGroup.getCount();%i++) {
         %obj = MissionGroup.getObject(%i);
         if(%obj.getClassName() $= Sun) {
            %obj.setName("Sun");
            break;
         }
      }
      if(!isObject(Sun))
         return;
   }
   Sun.setName("Old_Sun");
   new Sun(Sun : Old_Sun) { color = %sun SPC %sun SPC %sun SPC 1; };
   Old_Sun.delete();
