Description
Dynamic Weather and Day Night Cycle!

This mod that adds a rolling Day/Night cycle using real historical weather data, and synced with the time of day.
The weather data is based on the biome of the map so that each mission feels different.
Each biome has 1 year of hourly weather data, including wind speeds, directions, gusts and the weather condition. The mission will start at the time set by the host/mission maker on a random day in the year. The daynight cycle speed is configurable using the config.json included in the mod folder. The defaults are 30 minutes for day and 15 minutes for night.

Does it work in mutiplayer? Yes!
Only the host needs to have it installed. Clients having the mod installed will not cause problems.

How much did this mod cost to make? $4.28

*I say snow, but VTOL can't do snow, so its also rain.

really enjoy this mod, when night time doesn't suddenly sneak up on me!

so how'd it take $4.28 out your wallet?

When saying only the hsot needs it, does that mean that it will affect people without the mod loaded, or will the weather be inconsistent?

Akutan? Is that a biome you can even use? I tried adding it to my map and it reverted to Boreal.

Tropical definitely exists, it's just a tiny bit buggy.

does this work for non-modded maps as in the maps that you dont need to mod for or does it need to be in lobbies that support systems like the F-16

My bad, I shouldn't of said modded. Just overall custom maps as a whole, but that seems to be answered, sorry!
