Dynamic Gradient Color System

The action bar text color smoothly transitions based on the in-game time shown on the clock. The chart below shows the full 24-hour color cycle:

00:00 → 04:00 — Deep purple/indigo (late night) 04:00 → 08:00 — Warm golden yellow (sunrise) 08:00 → 12:00 — Fading into bright white (morning) 12:00 — Pure white (noon peak) 12:00 → 16:00 — Shifting into warm orange (afternoon) 16:00 → 20:00 — Deep orange-red (sunset) 20:00 → 23:59 — Fading back to cool blue/purple (night)

Fun fact: Every single hour and minute has its own individually defined color — that's 1,440 unique color values declared in total!
