Sun elevation issue
Good day,
I have a question regarding sunlight rendering in Sweet Home 3D.
I am trying to simulate the position of the sun at certain times during summer. I have correctly set the geolocation and the angle relative to North, and everything seems to work well. I am able to create a video that shows the sun's position throughout the entire day.
The problem I’m encountering is that after 18:00, the render engine switches to night mode. However, in my case (Northern hemisphere), the sun sets around 21:00 or even later during midsummer. While the sun's angle seems to match reality, the elevation of the sun does not reflect the correct sunset time.
Is there a way to adjust this, or force Sweet Home 3D to keep the sun visible until later in the evening? I’m happy to manually adjust it per day if needed.
