if you use these for main maps you should add this to the npc to enter the map or some other first action as it will not remain in effect if the player relogs (as it is not set to permanent to prevent errors or complaints) and will need to be set again in that case
if you wish to make the change permanent simply change the 1 at the end of the line to a 0
duration does not work properly use an action to change the light back to the default value at the end of your desired time period

its as simple as night and day
