Multiple skyboxes (Day/Night)
Demian:
I'm not going to let this slip away until someone gives me a reason why this isn't a good idea.
Paradon:
While we're at the topic of it, why not have a moon appear at night?
It would make light, except much less light than the sun.

Genius. Two sun flares at opposite sides. Although the shadows could prove troublesome. Could it be possible to disable the shadow casting of the first sun after it passes horizon and enable the shadow casting of the second one once it rises above the horizon? The second sun (flare) doesn't really need to cast shadows but it would be really neat.

I suppose the sun could teleport to the opposite side of slate once it goes under the horizon and change its flare to look like a moon. (along with making the light cast much darker and the sky changing)

We already somewhat have this. The skybox color's fade and darken when it becomes night - but I support this. We need better default skyboxes. A majority of them have a sun drawn into them.
