Title:
Customising The Client's Day Cycle XML file/Time of Day

Message:
I'm not sure if this is where I should post this so feel free to yell at me, I've been a resident since 2005 so I've become used to it. I asked live chat this question and they said take it to the forums since they "do not advise on scripting/coding". This is what I asked them, and now I put it to the public:

I would like to know if it's possible to edit the day cycle's "default.xml" file to set the "length of cycle" option in the client's "Day Cycle" window. Also I would like to know if it's possible to set a parameter in an xml file to automatically adjust the day cycle's time to PDT instead of reverting to estate time. My goal is to have the SL client set to automatically load a 24-hour day cycle with the time set to GMT-7(PDT) or other time zone. I also cannot find a list of parameters for editing the default.xml file. Does a list exist?

I am not a skilled coder, but I can edit an XML file or closely follow directions to get this accomplished.
