How do you add a night sky texture?

[Sergeant Politeness]

Basically I've been wondering how do you change the default sky texture to be night (keep it on sandstorm)? (Like what you've seen with Klayton's recent tracks)

You will need a skybox, which is dome that  has a sky texture on it. You place it over the track in Blender

That makes sense, how do I get a skybox though? Is there some way to copy it from another track then paste it over onto the track I'm working on in Blender?

Or you could always use a skyline, which is what is used on almost all of Klayton's newer tracks. You just gotta copy what i bolded in this .terrn file and place the code before the "end" leaving a space in between both of them. After that, just drag and drop all the .dds files  with the word "skyline" into your zip. Then after that, drag and drop the "skylinemat.material" file into your zip and you should be able to get a skyline after that.
