Is weather and time suppossed to be synced?
« on: November 04, 2011, 12:12:18 am »
I just noticed in one of my custom maps, It would start raining at sunup....but now it is raining in the middle of the night and my entire weather system is out of sync. Was it ever supposed to be in sync with the time of day, or no?

When u make weather and sky file, there is still another tab u can edit for timing weather to the time of day. If you want it to rain at a specific time u must edit the weather cycle so it matchs the time of day u want

I'm not asking how to make a weather cycle. I know how to make a weather cycle.

It falls out of sync after a couple days. I can have shooting stars at midnight, and after a week it'll be happening at sundown.

Yeah, that's because it doesn't really sync up with the actual days in FH. So things may look right at first but over time things get a little weird XD

I'm not too sure how long a FH day and FH night is in the weather terms, so I can't really help there. The time thing in Weather is very confusing XD

  Yeah. I think someone once said how long teh days were in some other thread but I can't be sure which one or if they actually did. It was a while since I last saw the thread.

Did it look like this?

Quote
Every "10" on the slider is about 25 seconds, which means a cycle is 4.5-5 hours.

The second hour starts about 1750
the third starts about 3500
the forth is about 5200

If you click the scroll bar on the weather maker, it will move it ahead or back by one in game hour, which is about 699 units.

Because I wrote that LOL. There was false information on it though, as I was assuming weather cycles and in-game time were synced. I'm not patient enough to time a whole day, lol.

  I don't know XD I'm actually very forgetful, the only thing I remembered was someone wrote about it once XD (sometimes I can barely remember my friends faces, I was shocked when one of my friends told me my best friend wore glasses XD and when ever I looked away from him I saw him with white hair, that's how shocking my  memory can be XD I also forget what I'm watching the second teh ad comes on XD)
