You're right, Wind is a lot more clear than SPD. I'll be changing that. Thanks for the suggestion!

Very nice weather screen, I did go through and updated SPD to Wind so as not to confuse it with vehicle speed other than that it works great :steamthumbsup:

I just couldn't fit "wind speed" in the space I had. To get true wind direction, I just used the formulas from this website:

True Wind gets more complicated than substracting. But I have no idea how the math works. If you need, you can copy my code from this MC.

Oh my bad, not sure why you didn't just label it as wind, I thought the speed was something else. Still though how are you able to know the "true wind" if such creation is moving? Normally I'd just subtract the vehicles speed to the wind but its not entirely accurate most of the time.

Or is there a bug or something? Speed is at the top: "SPD"

It does, it does.

How does this show true wind better then my 1x1 does? It doesn't even output a number of the actual wind speed.
