How can I move the sun/moon without changing anything else in my game(If possible)?

I doubt this is even close to possible, but I want to move the sun/moon without changing anything else in my game(If possible). I don’t want to change the Skybox, Clocktime, or even GeographicLatitude.

You COULD make a fake moon WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY (ok you get the point) WAY up in the sky using a billboardGUI. Make sure to make it huge and set AlwaysOnTop as true.

It looks good! Is there a way to make the billboard gui not rotate with the player’s camera and maybe also emit some light?

hii not sure if this is what you mean but if you mean moving the sun/moon without using the properties tab then I think this plugin will help:

it basically moves the sun/moon for you all u gotta do is select sun/moon then click where u want it to go

hope this helps^^

You could add a SpotLight to it and set its range to math.huge using the Command Bar

Don’t do the above solution. Try changing GeographicLatitude in the Lighting instead.

You should read the post properly before answering.

Though I would like to know why exactly.

Anyways, create a LocalScript that emulates the position of the moon instead of a BillboardGui, which will lower instance count and increase performance. If that solution is not applicable, use the previous solution.
