Day-Night Cycle - Siptah

In Exiled Lands, I have the cycle set to .5 speed, and my friend and I are pretty happy with how the day and night play out.

But in Siptah, I noticed the sun arcs to the Northeast, has a weird eclipse, then goes back south and rises again. There isn’t a proper ‘night’ phase, only a creepy eclipse twilight.

This doesn’t bother me, but it makes the Siptah zone unplayable to my friend, who also uses my server.

Is there a way to set a real day-night cycle in Siptah? I just want the sun to rise in a relatively normal arc. But in Siptah, it’s like the developers never learned how days and nights actually work. Is there lore? Or a setting to make it normal in Siptah?

Players complained about the cycle, and we finally have something better than other alternatives. The pitch black nighttime we had before just wasted our time every cycle. Now, it’s like living on the north pole. (Now, there is darkness on demand).

I like it.
