[REL] stoianm EnvWeather V1 SH5

Tested the mod all day long and so far is working as intended.

My biggest problem, that annoyed me very much, was the fog. Days after days all Ive got was only fog. Light, medium, heavy, blue, red, pink .. every possible type and color of fog and mist but sun. Now this has changed and finally I got a lot of sunny days but also a lot of clouds and high waves. Hope that soon I will get through some heavy storm too :P

Thanks for the mod, much appreciated!

happy that you like... i wish to be able to control the random factor of the game who give us the weather type but is far away for my limits... maybe someone with good programming skills will do that one day

Might give this ago actually. There's no question about the frequency of fog being to great, but my main weather issue is the lack of rain.....after 36 days at sea in two patrols around the British isles, i've yet to experience a single drop of rain!

Infact, if you could swop the current fog days for rain, you would have something approaching the real british weather pattern!

But i describet that it is all random... i can not change the random factor... it is hard coded... what this mod is doing... i will explain again:
for example:
the game gives you an random weather type and is changing this weather type after an time interval... the time interval has an min and an max..
this was setted all over the place at min5 and max 96 hours (and you must know that the game can give you the same weather type manny times in a row... so if the game pick up the max 96 hours and give you the rain weather type 2 times in a row you will have more than 8 days in a row rain...this sucks

what i did ... i reduced the time changing interval so this way the weather will change more often... you have the chance to have also much rain or fog but not so manny days in row (i observed that manny times when the weather type is changing you will have only the speed of wind changed

)

i know someone that succeded to control this random weather factor in sh3... i spoked with him but unfortunately he is not playing sh5... so until someone will take a look at this problem... this is the only thing that can change a bit the weather in game

regards

Now this weather issue is really weird and also annoying. Yeah, the weather change more often now but.. it changes fog with fog in my case. It jumps from heavy fog to light fog. I know the game engine control the weather, but lately I play only in fog. Since September 43 until December 43 I saw the sun only 3 days, no rain or storm. It seems that Im trapped in some kinda loop here.

I find it very hard to play the game in this condition, I need to abort all attacks just because I cant see anything. I wanna see the horizon again and I cant figure out a way to do it. Maybe I need to wait for the summer :/
