<code class="sig">Light.time_of_day(t)</code>
<div class="desc"><p>Sets the scene's <a href="light-ambient"><code>ambient</code></a> tint from a single **time-of-day** phase <code>t</code> — a <code>fixed</code> in <code>[0, 1]</code> where <code>0</code> is midnight, <code>0.25</code> dawn, <code>0.5</code> noon and <code>0.75</code> dusk. It ramps a deep-blue night up to full daylight and back over the day, so a game animates one value and the whole world's mood follows, without wiring the ambient colour by hand. It drives the same multiplicative modulate as <code>Light.ambient</code>, so call it once before adding lights. Deterministic (Q16.16 triangle ramp).</p></div>
