How get more rain and more wind?

@dad depending on what you had in mind, if you use the script packaged with the mod instead of the module you may be able to have a defined time between changes. edit the line : _overcastChange = random [3000,3300,3600];.
bear in mind anything less than 50 minutes between weather changes you will start seen jumps in the clouds as there is an engine limitation for how fast the weather can actually transition.

Hey pal

We added this to our modpack and we've used it in a few missions.
One point I'd like to make is the ability to set the module to change after X time instead of having to wait 50-60mins.

Awesome, thanks.

@dad Indeed, unless some Arma update has screwed it since it should all work.

Quick reply.
"Believe"

What does that entail? I imagine you've done your edits, repacked and tested correct? So if all works as intended on your end, it should work now in theory yes? - Implything this is the most updated version.

Also, have you tested this on a multiplayer server yet? Not local MP.

@dad I believe I fixed it!

Any news on this?
Big community looking to add this for our mission makers.

@St3p43n - Outstanding, thank you for such a quick response! Cheers

Apparently something has gone wrong in packing and the module is missing some files, trying to fix, in the meantime you can still fine a functioning script packed with the addon.
