Abyone else had probs with trying to make a custom daylight cycle?

I keep finding the keys I add keep shoving all up near 12am, eventually I get it by saving and loading each time I add a key, but then thay all shove back again, frustrating, seems to go wrong when I fine tune all the keys to hourly intervals.
Also the time seems screwed daycycle editor thinks it 11am while SL viewer shows its 4:45pm
Not sure what snap does, it doesn't seem to work
I also hope glow is controlable by script as it's glow on minimum setting at midday still looks nightlike :)

Wasn't there something that these things, along with the capability of saving your setting for the next login, would only work if they change it server side as well?

Hmm maybe I missed it somewhere :)
Personally I also hop when entering a new sim the settings all go to a regions defaults rather than the viewer if the sim owner desires this, if users want light to build or read perhaps they should just ahve an overall gamma setting they can adjust.
It's just a bit strange skulking in the shadows of a dark roleplay setting sim set to midnight to find other people can see you broad as daylight because they are playing in a never ending night world in daylight.
I suspect the only time you should have 100% control is on your own land. Though this causes problems for those who want to take scenic photo's etc. Maybe the viewer reverts back to default region settings after an hour?
Any answers on what we should do to make this work best for all?
