This would allow more options for the player to up the difficulty in a natural way(night specific changes), while also adding the option(the day/night cycle editing) for the player to create self imposing challenges or just more difficulty.
An example could be having night only challenges which on its own would disable any form of solar energy generation that the player would have to keep note of.
Another example would be if there are more solar based functions added to the game, the player would have to balance between day time gameplay and night time gameplay, say a Solar based turret that does nothing during the night but in return is pretty strong during the day.
An example custom scenario could be Short Days Long Nights where it's now like 20% Day and 80% Night, so the player would have to make sure to use the time wisely as when night comes, it would bring all sorts of trouble.
