Time/Day & Night Bug(?)

[KingOfNothing22]

I've been playing SH3 pretty constantly for just over a year (LSH-2015 at the moment) and never had this problem:

The sun is coming up at around 02:00 and setting around 14:00. It's August 1940 and I'm in the western Mediterranean, though it actually started just before I went through Gibraltar.

I've done a bit of searching and can't find much about it or many people reporting any similar problems. I only ever use up to x32 TC (usually no higher than x8) and it seems to have started after loading up the save a couple of days ago. The only thing I can think of is I've possibly messed up the save file somehow which is actually a first for me!

Anybody else had anything similar happen or know of any potential solutions?

What mods do you use?
Did you activate any mods during your current patrol after leaving port?
Does it happen only inside the Mediterranean?

Quite a few, the main one being LSH-2015 and the additional mods that comes with, aside from that a handful of sound mods and some uniform mods (Rapt0r's Uniforms V2.0, compulsory u-boat headdress, no medals on crew and no rank on crew).

The only one added after leaving port was a sound mod changing some of the LI's speech files. AFAIK I've been able to add or remove sound files before without any issues like this.

It first started in the Atlantic just south of Cadiz before I entered the Strait of Gibraltar.

Edit: Tested on a separate career from two different ports (Kaseburg and Kiel) at different times of day with no problems. Assuming it's an issue with this particular save file.

I agree on it's a save game issue. I'm not familiar with LSH-2015 at all since I've always been a GWX player but if there are no problems in other careers as you mentioned, I'm quite sure you're right and your save file got somehow corrupted. Have you already tried reloading a previous one before you reached the region south of Cadiz?

Seems to be what it is, though I've no idea what the cause could be. Because this patrol started in Vigo the only save I have before the one I have before getting through Gibraltar is back in base before the start of the patrol >_<
