Weathermancer – Weather Select Menu
This is a pretty simple menu wrapping some new weather functions added by psiberx in the latest Codeware. psiberx did all the work of reverse engineering to find and expose functions we could use to control the weather and make them available for anyone. I would expect a few new mods from different folks using them. It’s possible now to have a mod that has it’s own custom weather schedule (without relying on the normal transition system), or dynamic weather changes based on anything you want.
This mod just lets you go into a menu (MODS via Native Settings UI), pick the weather you want, and set it. Once you set a weather type with this mod, it will stay like that forever until any of these happen:
– You change to another weather type with the menu
– a quest overrides the weather
– You “reset” the weather with the other button in the menu. This puts the weather back on a the normal (or modded) variable schedule that transitions every few hours.
Other weather mods
This mod is compatible with Weather Probability Rebalance, Enhanced Weather, Weather Randomiser, Eye Adaptation (once updated for 2.0), and any other classic weather mods that work the same way. Those mods change the default transition map that governs the normal changing weather. This mod overrides that and sets a permanent weather the same way that quests do. You can go back to normal variable weather at any time by using the Reset button in the menu.
Weather Types
The available weather types are everything defined in the game files by default. These include all the weather types in the normal variable weather transitions:
Sunny
Rain
Fog
Pollution
Toxic Rain
Sandstorm
Light Clouds
Cloudy
Heavy Clouds
and also some weather types added in patch 2.0 (used in certain scenes in PL/new endings or epilogues):
Squat Morning (Like rain but not blue)
Deep Blue
Courier Clouds
Cloudy Morning
Rainy Night (rainy but not cloudy)
Light Rain
Other affects on the game
This is really new so I don’t know how much this could mess up the game. I think very little. The worst thing I think could happen is that if you set a weather with too high of a priority (and we don’t know what that is yet), then a quest that wants to change the weather (for example haboobs) won’t be able to and you’ll have rain instead of sandstorm. Also you should be able to intentionally change the weather during a quest where the weather is set to something else. You can always reset to go back to normal weather.
With this mod you can make it rain in the badlands, which normally doesn’t happen with the normal variable weather.
