Why does my map go dark when I load?

Sardius	Can anyone explain this wierd effect? In inialization my map has disabled the day/night system, and light in the map properties is set at high noon. I have no problem when playing the map, but if I save and reload I notice everything is much darker, almost like its night time, either that or the lighting itself has become much darker... Any ideas?

Sardius	I guess there is a bug with using pre-set time in the actual map properties, because adding a trigger in map init, "set time of day to 12" fixed the problem.

Trigger:

-Event:

Player - PLayer loads Game

Condition: N/A

-Action:

Time - Set time to 12 noon

Time -Freeze Time clock

Trigger -Turn off trigger

I wrote this in at work so I can't get you a full and complete trigger, but this should work considering that what your saying seems to be the case.

One of two things can also be the cause but I need more information.

Clock resets to speed and time it normally is when loading.

Map initialization trigger doesn't pick up where it left off.

but like I said I need more information it would help if you posted your trigger.

EDIT: didn't realized that you already fixed the problem
