The LightOn command defines the time of day that the lights come on, or can be set to permanently on (it's not reliant on weather or lighting conditions, only time of day).

 

Wherever you set LightOn=1.25 then you'll get permanent lights for that set of definitions at all hours of the day. Lower values will turn the lights on later and later in the day, until you get to a really low value, say 0.10, which will only turn the lights on at some time during the night for a short period, turning off before dawn breaks.

 

Regards, comrpnt.
