The value does not need to be an integer. @param year:int The year @param month:int The month, 1 = January, 12 = December @param day:int The day, minimum value is 1, probable maximum value is 31 (*) @param hour:int The hour, minimum value is 0, maximum value is 23 @param minute:int The minute, minimum value is 0, maximum value is 59 @param second:int The second, minimum value is 0, probable maximum value is 60 (**) @param weekday:int The weekday, 1 = Monday, 7 = Sunday @param fade:float? Blueshift can use this function to fade into a state when it start or exits. `fade` can either be negative, zero or positive or `None`, but the magnitude of value cannot exceed 1. When Blueshift starts, this function will be invoked multiple with the time parameters of the time it is invoked and each time `fade` will increase towards 1, starting at 0, when the value is 1, the settings should be applied to 100 %. After this this function will be invoked once again with `fade` being `None`. When Blueshift exits the same behaviour is used except, `fade` decrease towards -1 but start slightly below 0, when -1 is reached all settings should be normal. Then Blueshift will NOT invoke this function with `fade` being `None`, instead it will by itself revert all settings and quit.
