Summary

I'm making a night/day cycle with pictures for extra lighting and I'm having trouble getting the pictures to show up right away after you exit a house.

So I included EVERY number from 1 to 21 to see if I was right, and I also changed the setup a bit so Day starts at 1 minute/frame and it worked, but now the pictures are constantly flickering (and my event is a mess...)

Please take a look at it if you need more info.
If you do download the file, the common event called "fast time test" is the original where everything works fine except for the house bit, and "Fast Time 2" is where I added all the extra numbers.
I tried resolving this on my own, but I am really tired of this now and would greatly appreciate any assistance.
