Saying that it "depends on" is not particularly helpful.

What *would* be helpful was a number in each, showing what you would need for a 100% success if you were (1) in shadows at night, (2) not in shadows at night, (3) in shadows during the day or (4) not in shadows during the day.

I personally know no way of finding out except by experiments. Maybe I'll get to it.

I presume that "hide in shadows" is only relevant when entering shadows, and the "move silently" check is made every six seconds after that. I also presume that entering shadows is impossible if there are enemies around, but that enemies don't affect the ability to *stay* in shadows.
