Can we move the sun around?

In all PC2 battles the sun always seems to be coming from our front right position as in the screenshot below, meaning that the 3d units are partly in dull shadow.
In Battle Academy we can tweak a file to put the sun behind our shoulder so that its rays bring out all colours more vividly and pleasing to the eye, and I'm just wondering if there's a similar file in PC2 that we can tweak?

Incidentally in the shot below I turned shadows "off" in the option screen, it improves the lighting slightly but because there are no shadows the units seem to be "floating" just above the ground and doesn't look good-

(PS- a newcomer in another thread was saying its hard to tell unit types apart if they're all the same colour, so let me remind noobs that you can change unit camo easily like I've done in the shots above, (right-click the unit then click 'Camouflage' and choose your colour)
I've left my tanks in default grey, but I've changed the AT units, Arty and Recon to stripey, sandy and whitish to make it easier to tell the classes apart)
