Author Topic: Weather Mod?  (Read 862 times)

So I know there are plenty of weather mods, but I had an idea about a weather mod, that could spawn clouds (basic or advanced), that have a random chance to rain or snow.  I know it would be quite laggy for most people in blockland , but just like wind that pushes you around that could be decided by a preference in BL Glass or RTB could be a good idea. This could be used for rps and stuff, e.g. my Hurricane RP.

Why would it be laggy? Especially if they're flat textures, clouds probably wouldn't cause much lag, I don't think.

That's what I was thinking about.

If we had a 2D texture of a hurricane in the sky, or some sort, with the wind pushing you about, you could easily script it to change the skybox to rain. Problem is it would disconnect people from the server.

What? Changing the skybox doesn't kick people, does it? Unless they have "download textures" off, perhaps, but that's their issue.
