"And if it is morning, noon AND night?"

If it is all three at the same time, you must be on the Flying Castle, which has three habitats differing by eight hours from each other.

It becomes a most noticeable problem on the Thrust Ring jogging track. You can jog for fifteen minutes, and end up on a different "continent".

The jogging track is only at Lunar gravity, approximately, but that depends on the direction you choose. Counterrotation makes for easy going, but with the rotation, it's uphill all the way!
