Weather Rebalance

Description
Weather in SE is far too damaging to players and grids in my opinion, so this fixes that :D

similar mods might already exist elsewhere, i forgot i made this, anyway, this is my own 'flavour'.

not fully tested, but loaded in ok and didnt cause errors/crash.

damage dealt by lightning, reduced from 80, to 8 (may adjust again later)

minimum Decoy lightning rod protection increased from 20 to 30 (i think this is meters)

some lightning effects with frequent lightning strikes to players and grids were made infrequent the same as other lightning weather variants

some wind multipliers are now set to reduce instead of multiply the output, mainly the strong wind/dust/sand storm types

slightly made solar output worse on the heavy weather types.

not yet touched, lightning explosion radius.

you would have to try them both and compare :)

very sure, if that could be changed, it would already be that way in vanilla, i certainly cant change this, its beyond my abilities, this mod is just altering some values.

Are you Sure? Why can it not be tied to when you have good O2 and are warm, when both thoes are met, game turns Off weather shaders.

having more of an issue with the Sandstorm in Petram because in my underground base, that is airtight i still have the sandstorm and fog effects inside the base, killing the immersion .

@UnnamedUser - *Shrug* I'm not saying it's not possible to survive, I'm saying two things - one, that it was more of a pain than I wanted (which I went on for far too long about) and two, that it was bad on the Earthlike planet, so it's not, as your initial comment implied, something which MAINLY occurs on Pertam; it's a potential issue on all planets, if the RNG decides on lightning more often than you like. Which, for my preferences, it did.

Weather effects exist on all Vanilla planets with an atmosphere. I've been hit twice in a row by lightning on Alien.

I was not amused. My wife thought it was hysterical.
