Keeps Azeroth bright after dark — clear, colorful nights without the washed-out look.

Description
Tired of squinting through Azeroth's nights? It's always sunny now.
Always Sunny in Azeroth watches your realm's clock. When night falls, it eases your display gamma and contrast up so the world stays clear and colorful. At dawn it fades everything back to your normal settings. No more muddy forests, pitch-black caves on the road, or questing by torchlight.
Features
- Automatic. Follows realm time and fades in over an hour at dusk and out at dawn, so there's no sudden jump.
- No haze. Brightens with gamma and contrast instead of raw brightness, so nights look crisp rather than covered by a gray film.
- Your settings are safe. It remembers your own Gamma, Brightness and Contrast and restores them at dawn, when you turn it off, and every time you log out.
- Minimap button. Left-click to turn it on or off, right-click for a test preview, and drag to move. It uses the standard LibDBIcon button when another addon provides it, so minimap button collectors pick it up. It also appears in the AddOns dropdown by the minimap.
- Fully tunable. Adjust strength, each setting's boost, and when "night" starts and ends.
- Lightweight. No required libraries or dependencies, and it checks the time only every 10 seconds.

Good to know
- Addons can't change the game's actual sky or lighting. This works by adjusting your display settings on a schedule, which is the same thing you'd do by hand in the Graphics menu, just automatic.
- Because those are display-wide settings, your UI gets slightly brighter at night too. The defaults keep this subtle.
- If you uninstall the addon, log out once first so your normal settings are written back. They are restored automatically at every logout either way.
