Architect desk bug where it makes the game bright and eternal daytime (PS5)

[honest imp]

I recorded these yesterday and wanted to see what i can move and stuff at the architect desk and when i exited it, the game became brighter than usual so i checked the brightness and nothing seems to change plus it isn’t supposed to be this bright at night lol. After i recorded the video i wanted to gift paul his birthday gift at the salon but instead triggered many cutscenes (probably cuz i rarely go to the salon lol) and then after gifting him and all, i went outside only to find that the bright sky go back to normal which is a bit weird. It is my first encounter with this bug and didn’t even try to restart or anything. Device/System: PS5

I guess you could say it’s an Eternal Sunshine? Lol.

Hi @honest imp. Thanks for reporting the issue! We've received reports of this issue before, but unfortunately, our teams are still having trouble replicating it

Can you share your full activities on that day? Do you remember clicking something, like open the crafting menu, maps, etc? 😮

Well I teleported from hillside to the farm to check if i placed the barn (not built yet) is there, then i stored and sold some stuff, after that i went on the architect desk and want to see what can i move and also wanted to see how much is it going to be placing my other barn next to the new one which is being built. I believe it was 2000 coins so not bad cuz both barns are not that far. After placing the barn next to the other barn but not confirming the purchase, I pressed circle (i think thats the button to exit) and when i exited out of the architect desk, that happened

I also messed around with the decor mode movement controls and changing them but i ended up resetting them back to default, idk if that is relevant. I was messing around with the decor movement controls thinking it would make placing the buildings less sensitive but that was for the camera in decor mode not for placing the buildings lol. (i think its the cursor that is sensitive, so ill change that soon) idk if there is way to change that for the d-pad and not the joysticks

Forgive me if my English is bad, im very tired today and it isn’t my first language

It's okay! Thank you for the time and effort you put into writing the details. We really appreciate it

I'll relay this info to the teams, and get back to you again if we need additional info

Just noticed this happened to me in game. Summertime, used the architect desk at night, and it lit up like it was daytime, after use it stayed lit like daytime until I went into my shed and came back out, then it reset to looking like night again. Throughout the day I just was tending to my farm/animals/artisan machines etc. Wanted to move a chest that I had to close to my shed door, but had just given my pickaxe to Pablo earlier in the day.
