autodarken is a built-in level setting (a checkbox that defaults to not-selected) that has the effect of darkening the 3d view for a selectable time. You find it in the area of the setting the time to display-alternate-background-for-night area when you select the properties of the level or the properties of zones (I forget as I'm not on my computer at this time, but using a library computer)

yeah, that is how it SHOULD work (I haven't tested it out). You'd want to make it so that the "normal" passage of time doesn't turn your dungeon dark. Instead of using a pass time event, you would have to set the time using scripts (this way it would just set the time to the desired value instead of possibly advancing a day forward. The quest is used to maintain the actual time, and would have to adjust the date if necessary.
Hmm, dealing with the actual passage of time doesn't sound as easy as I first thought tho. You'd prolly need a quest for the time, and another to include the number of days.
