It seems like it should if everything is being turned over to Radiance now, no? See this discussion for more details: http://www.grasshopper3d.com/group/ladybug/forum/topic/show?id=2985220%3ATopic%3A1517657&xg_source=msg

@chriswmackey with the daylight coefficient method that @sariths is implementing for honeybee implementing this will be a piece of cake.

PS: I think I can finally use this as an example of why I was pushing for using radiance daylight coefficient based radiation analysis for all the comfort models. There is actually much more that we can do for all the interior analysis too. It's all eventually coming together.

@mostaphaRoudsari , I agree and I am coming around to see a lot of the benefits too. That sunlight hours example that you posted was very fast. -Chris

This is not related anymore as all the radiation analysis recipes are radiance-based and already capable of handling materials.
