Leave those lights on!

vecki:
Why oh why, when outdoor lights are on automatic, do they all turn off at 2am!?  Pain in the butt when I've got insomniac sims playing chess or participating in other outdoor activities suddenly needing nightvision goggles just to keep from tipping over.  (ok, I haven't seen a single sim tip over, but then I can't see because the LIGHTS ARE ALL OUT!).  Ahem.

Is there a hack which can keep outdoor lights on, and turn them off at 6 or 7am (say, when it gets light enough to see)?  Indoor lights I'm happy to keep the way they are at the moment.

Hook:
Outdoor lights are a little weird anyway.  Have you noticed they come on at 6 PM and it doesn't get dark until 7?  Then they go off at 2 AM. 

This is ok for Sims who keep a reasonably "normal" schedule, but for vampires, at least, they'll never keep that normal schedule.  Would be nice to have the ability for the outside lights to be on when it's dark outside, off when it's light.

Wow, yah know I never noticed the outdoor lights turn off at night.

simmiecal:
I just click on one of the lights - turn on, all outdoors. I believe this leaves them on all the time.

But that's wasting energy, and running up the electricity bills!  ;) Aren't your sims environmentally aware?
