Code:

#define HOUR    36000
proc
    DAYNIGHT()
        while(world)
            sleep(HOUR*3)
            var/obj/Night/O = new /obj/Night
            world<<"<b><font color=red>Night falls over the land.</b></font>"
            for(var/turf/T in world)
                if(!T.weatherProof) T.overlays += O
                else
                    if(istype(T,/turf/LAMP))
                        T.overlays -= O
                        T.icon='turfs.dmi'
                        T.icon_state="lit"
            sleep(HOUR*3)
            for(var/turf/T in world)
                if(!T.weatherProof) T.overlays -= O
                if(istype(T,/turf/LAMP))
                    T.overlays -= O
                    T.icon='turfs.dmi'
                    T.icon_state="lamp1"
            world<<"<b><font color=yellow>The morning sun rises.</b></font>"

Problem description:
It does not become night time.

Mizukouken Ketsu

            var/obj/Night/O = new /obj/Night

What is the point of that line? It's so random.

Louisthe10	It is the night overlays, so it looks dark

Mizukouken Ketsu	for(var/turf/T) if(!T.weatherProof) new/obj/nightTimeOverlay(T) That'll accomplish the same effect, with less coding.
