Can you have this toggle-able in the Environmental GUI?

It's already toggle-able. It's off by default. You have to turn it on or off via /startStorm or /stopStorm

Love it! Does it play an emmiter? Also can you make it hit a few spots you choose for it? Like /strucklightninghere

No emitter yet. It would be really hard to guess where to place the emitter randomly in Slate

He wants a toggle switch in enviroment gui. I believe

Jeep · August 21, 2012, 01:29:56 AM

I could definitely look into it.

Zaxx · August 21, 2012, 01:49:51 AM

Also I want to be able to set what locations lightning/thunder will strike.

This one is way more practical. The other one has useless scripts in there for the "lols". I kid you not. This has a realistic flicker, random intervals, better sounds, and doesn't screw up lighting. And is also way more stable.

Well I guess you're right :/
~~But what do you mean by useless scripts in for the "lols"?~~
Oh you mean the fake AI to change the environment setting?
I didn't know you could do it otherwise

I think the direct color that the lightning gives off should be different, from the picture it looks like the sun exploded.

Also, is it possible to have the lightning strike from different angles on the map? I'm sure you could do that by changing the azimuth of sun/lightning to something random when it's striking and then put it back to what it was originally.

Anyways I'm pretty mad right now because it makes 3 add-ons that a make that some one else makes before me and releases. :c

I didn't mean to steal your thunder. I just wanted a storm mod that was more "realistic".
