Dynamic Background Color

Description
Changes the play area's background color dynamically! On the surface, the color generally follows the status bar time indicator, gradually transitioning from one color to the next. Underground, the background becomes progressively darker the deeper you delve.

Works with new and existing saves.

FYI (because I noticed this mod is also getting comments about this issue): the “crash on exit” bug is something that appears to be occurring across all Harmony mods upon exiting the game on Windows. I have filed a bug report in connection with this issue:

https://bitbucket.org/bbucklew/cavesofqud-public-issue-tracker/issues/13473/game-consistently-crashes-with-minimal

I think that this bug is unlikely to corrupt a save but not impossible. The crash almost certainly would need to occur elsewhere during the course of a game; crashing on exit is unlikely to have any real negative impact.

Bumping Tassie Tiger's comment about the game crashing on exit- I've grown used to it that it's kind of part of the game's charm at this point but a fix would be appreciated anyways- I worry that the game crashing even on close could corrupt a save.

Same problem as @Tassie Tiger, an update would be appreciated, cheers :snowflakes:

good to know it's not just me

I did just find this line spammed a few times in player.log, not sure if it's what is causing crash on exit but maybe worth a look anyway

I have the same issue as @Tassie Tiger, upon exit unity crash reporter runs. Otherwise no issues that I can see.

The mod seems to work fine except the game crashes on exit since installing this mod. It's not a big deal but thought I would let you know

Nice, thanks for the report!

for anyone who's curious, this seems to work fine with the 1.0 release! will mention if I have any issues, but so far it's been smooth

ok thank you!

@Kinasin: Yes, I just tested with the latest release version and it still works for me. I did have to re-approve all of my enabled mods via the in-game mod configuration menu though.
