What string maintains sweetspot feel, softness, ball pocketing at night?

Almost every string I try becomes unreactive at night without the sun and firms up and loses its sweet feeling loses spin, ball pocketing etc. As an extreme example a perfect contrast full bed 4G is super soft, sweet, very reactive spinny and powerful in the sun and serves awesomely very easily but then at night it firms up loses its softness and ball sink in can't find the sweetspot anymore and serves constantly launch long and rarely feel a sweetspot feeling cause the softness and ball pocketing is no longer there to manipulate the ball in and loses spin ability. This happens with almost every string setup I've tried except alu power 1.15 was somehow maybe even better at night for just the first couple or few sessions then became bad at night like everything else. Just can't get that soft speetspot ball pocketing feeling unless the sun is out and warm enough.

Thinking about premier control and thin 1.15 or 1.20 polytour pro... Based on experience with alu power 1.15 being great at night the first few times maybe it has something to do with thin strings more snapback and pocketing?

lower temperatures just cause the string bed to stiffen up…i would have multiple racquets and use lowest tension one at night

I distinguish sun not temps cause 90 degrees very sunny is great and easy whereas 90 degrees night is difficult. One of my best days on groundstrokes was actually 35 degrees no clouds super sunny stiff 50 lb 4G

You can really see the problem when you play thru sunrise and sunset even though temp doesn't change drastically, before sun really gets up my vortex string would hit low balls on serve then 1-2 hrs later with the sun up all of a sudden the ball is bouncing high with the exact same serves so much more reactive and sweet
