Torque 3D allows us to set up an automatic day/night cycle for our game's level, which will control either a Sun instance or position of the sun in the sky of a ScatterSky object. We may also create events that are triggered at specific
times of the day.
In this recipe, we will set up a TimeOfDay object and use it to control the sun and lighting of a ScatterSky object, as well as trigger an event at a particular time.
We will be using a project based on the Torque 3D's Full template using the Empty Terrain level. If you haven't already, use the Torque Project Manager (Project Manager.exe) to create a new project from the Full template. It can be found under the My Projects directory. Subsequently, start our new Full template game and load the Empty Terrain level.
