Possibility for a night version aswell?

Is there a possibility folks that you guys also make a night version (So to say that it starts at 6pm) I changed the server time to 18:00 but it's still 6 am for some reason.

I don't even have main_config.sqf. I always host the server through the game (I can also do it through the dedicated server, but there is no real huge ping difference with my friend who I always play with) So it still won't change the time. I changed it in mission.sqm and it still stays at 6 am (I can see the difference through the GPS where it says 06:20 as an example)

The hour is defined via the variable "A3W_startHour", either in "server\init.sqf" from the PBO, or in the external "A3Wasteland_settings\main_config.sqf" from the main Arma 3 folder, if you grabbed it from our files repo on GitHub and placed it there before. The hour value in mission.sqm is always ignored.

Also, all config defined in "A3Wasteland_settings" is always read and takes precedence over the PBO, whether the mission is running as a dedi or self-hosted in game.
