It wouldn't require a new tileset, but it would take quite a bit of effort to completely revamp the overworld and give purpose to night time.
What purpose would a lantern truly have? To be able to see? You have to realize that on Facebook you can't achieve the sort of effect you have on the other devices. So the only fair thing to do for Facebook users is to make it more visible. This means on Facebook it's not as dark as the other devices so they can actually see... but this also means that they have an advantage since they can get visibility as large as their resolution. Compared to the other devices, that's not fair since they only get a circle cut out, even with a lantern. Facebook users will see someone coming from the other side of the level; other devices will only see someone coming from a few tiles away.
Also, what happens if a new player logs in when the server is currently at night? It will be quite some time before they can get a lantern, and their visibility will be greatly reduced. Doesn't sound fun.

How about turning that air asia which is set up for demolition into an island just for the night, and their visibility yes would be low but thats why I had the idea of street lamps.. Whats a city without lights? They can have lights in towns,cities etc. But as soon as they step out of those areas their visibility will drop, and I never really said to make it as dark as caves that would be ridiculous, it would be better if you could actually see at night like in real life except the lanterns elp you detect certain things or give you more light than usual. A lot of people want a night/day time and its only natural for a game like classic to have one so why not?
