Does the skysphere affect the lighting in level?

I’ve got an issue in that my map has got a series of rooms one in which I really want to show a sunny outlook from a window.

However the issue is the skysphere that has the sun is facing the opposite direction.

I’ve also got a directional sun light in there, I’m thinking if I keep this as it is.

Can I simply just rotate the skysphere 180 degrees so that I can see the sun from the window in that room?

I’m worried if I do this it might affect the lighting in the level and I don’t want to mess with this afterwards.

position of sun on skysphere depends on direction of directional light, if it set as light source into skysphere properties.

it wont change if you rotate sphere itself. you need to rotate directional light.
