Description:

tl;dr Easy random weather in SP/MP

OVERVIEW
DDW enables randomly changing weather in SP/MP with easy module-based setup. It has several weather presets:

sunny
cloudy
overcast
rainy
foggy
stormy
windy
monsoon
snow storm
dust storm
tornado

Each cycle, there is a chance that the weather will change. Possible presets, cycle length, change chance and change time can be set in the module.

The "weight" value next to each preset is how likely it is to be chosen.
0=never chosen
1=same chance as others
2=twice as likely as other presets (with a value of 1)
9=nine times as likely as other presets (with a value of 1)

Note that the monsoon, snow storm and dust storm can take some time to take effect. Make sure the cycle is long enough to accomodate this.

You can check the current weather present by interrogating the following string global variable on any client:

ddwWeatherCurrent

You can force a weather change by running this code on any client:

[]remoteExec["DDW_fnc_ChangeWeather",2];

Note that doing so may cause conflicts if snow storm, sand storm or monsoon is currently active.

You can find the module in Eden under Modules > Drongo’s Dynamic Weather
