Confirmed to be happening even with previous 2020 objects compiled with the Max SDK, seems to be fairly recent, it’s only a problem at night.

I have the same problem, I tested compiling the scenario with the latest SDK and Blender plugins but the problem still persists. I think the cause is in the engine.
