Just something that has been irking me, I dunno if this was fixed in 1.10 (probably not...)
Since the expansion, the dawn cycle has been screwed up. There used to be a very smooth transition from the darkness of night to the brightness of day, with a beautiful orange coloration effect in 3D mode. Since the expansion, the process "aborts" at some point, that is, in early dawn, the time suddenly skips directly to broad daylight. Aside from this looking ugly, this ends up shortening the "dawn" period on these per-time effects, which mods sometimes make use of.
