But it looks y for all the sudden at 8am everything to appear and change at once, so at 8am I would like for the screen to fade out, process the switch change, wait 60 frames, and then fade back...

But it looks y for all the sudden at 8am everything to appear and change at once, so at 8am I would like for the screen to fade out, process the switch change, wait 60 frames, and then fade back in with everything open, and then same thing at 10pm. When I try to do this in a common event, it keeps looping the fade cycle. Don't really know how else to do it so that it would apply to all maps in my game at the same time.
