Regarding Rain storms and Blizzards: Server owners/JSON file controls the frequency and duration of both the rain storms and blizzards. They also control whether the cold effect is enabled or not. During normal rain, there is a "medium" fog, during blizzards, the fog can range anywhere from light to thick, but when BOTH proc (we are calling this a blizzard storm for now) there can be fog so thick you cannot see the ground under your feet. This is to add to the elements gameplay and force players into new survival challenges. It is also to ensure that most activity is in the low-lying regions, mostly the middle of the map.

That would explain a bit.... I built my base extremly high up nice touch by the way!

Is there a train on the map?

If you can add it by dragging the file from the folder with the map of Russia

The Yukon cargo train has been spawning on the map since several updates ago.

Are there NPC safezones on the map?

tons of caves in the moutains or by the riverside and a deadzone unmarked on the right edge of the map as hinted by a npc lying in bed
