Dynamic Weather Mod

DYNAMIC WEATHER Server-side weather that changes continuously, and stays physically correct. Arma Reforger gives you four weather states, each with one fixed set of values. This mod replaces those values two times each second, so rain, fog, wind speed and wind direction move all the time and agree with each other: rain waits for the cloud deck, wind leads the front, fog needs calm, clear, cold air. It drives the sky through the transition queue of the engine, thus the vanilla upcoming-weather panel still works and shows what the mod planned.

An autumn morning can start in steam fog. - Snow. Below a wet bulb temperature of 0 C the rainy mood asks for a snow sky. Of the vanilla worlds only Kolgujev is cold enough. - A METAR report in the chat at each new weather period: the wind, the visibility, the precipitation, the cloud, the temperature and the trend. - Seasons. The date of the scenario controls the temperature and the fog. A November night makes fog frequently, a July night almost never. - Lightning and a gale in a thunderstorm. THE CLIMATE OF THE WORLD The mod reads the latitude and the longitude that the loaded world publishes, and it selects the climate of that place. It ship...
