(FORTSU) Consistent storm for many days, weeks even

It may storm but every storm typically lasts and hour or so. Never for days on end.

I'm not sure if this is mod-related or something about the vanilla game. In any case is there a way to tweak this? Thanks.

One of those inherent bugs in SH 4, sim pulls the weather from multiple files and believe is hardcoded as well and tends to get stuck at times in cycles.

I noticed since I went through ALL of the files...campaign traffic, patrol objectives, etc and altered the cycles there is more stability in the weather, less tendency to storm like it is the Atlantic lol. Your location on the map (planet earth) also comes into play.


ctrl+n will change the weather when it gets stuck...usually a slight delay but will change it.


One factor that causes stick is high time compression, going above 1056x seems to "break" the weather.
