I want an outdoor night map - forest, swamp, or something.

I don't want to have to select the map, enter the mission and check. Is there a way to tell from the map if it is at night?

Or just a site where I can view the maps and see if they are night maps?

I think only the Zig breakout map is constantly at night. All of the others obey the game's current time of day.

See MA Unique Maps on the wiki for a useful list. According to that, only the Zig Breakout and Mercy Island Landing Pad maps are known to be forced to night mode. Indoor maps don't care, and outdoor maps use the current game time of day/night and adjust as you play.

I'd love to have the ability to set, say, the RWZ map to forced-night, because the atmosphere with the searchlights is much more interesting. Maybe in 2.0.
