Do you mean change it from quick-host (when all turns are in) now to being every midnight (California time?)
I think its either one or the other. Actually I can put both on but I dont think thats all-moves OR midnight. I think its all-moves AND midnight. So if everyone did their turns it would process then at midnight process again.  Let me know which one you want.
With some programming I was thinking that I could create something that can check for whether a turn was done and force it at midnight IF it hadnt done it in 24 hours. Leave the game daemon running on quick-host, have the --postexec save the time to a file, have a midnight program check the time-file and if its too long then shutdown the quick-time and do a forced hosting and bring the quick-time back up... maybe I will hack on that idea abit.
