This Lua script adds dynamic weather to the game. While it may not be the most visually stunning, given the engine's capabilities (rain, fog, clouds), it still looks quite good. The script is still in beta testing and not fully complete, but the core features are already functional.Current Features:
- Weather events: sunny, cloudy, light rain, heavy rain, storm, fog, fog with rain;
- Dynamic wind affecting vehicles and objects (if supported by the object);
- Wind gusts that occur randomly, with frequency and strength depending on the current weather;
- Tornadoes that slowly chase the player and interact with physical objects (vehicles, walls, mattresses, etc.). Only one tornado can be active at a time;
- Slippery roads during rain or snow (works only for terrain-based roads, not for meshes like bridges);
- Dynamic rain, clouds, fog, temperature, and brightness;
- User interface for controlling weather, wind, tornadoes, and road conditions;
- Compatibility with career mode and missions/scenarios.
How to Use:
- To activate dynamic weather on the map, press Alt + W;
- To hide wind gust and event messages, press Ctrl + Alt + W (these keybindings can be changed in the settings);
- After activation, a message will appear in the top-right corner of the screen;
- When switching maps, the script will automatically unload to avoid issues. You'll need to enable it manually again.
Tornadoes:
Tornadoes are not yet part of the weather system and must be enabled or created manually.
- To create a tornado near your vehicle, press Alt + T;
- Random tornado generation can be enabled via the UI, but it is not yet weather-dependent. This will be improved in future updates;
- Only one tornado can be active at a time.
Weather Control:
- To select a specific weather event, use the UI accessible through the main menu (Esc);
- Through the UI, you can control road conditions, wind speed, tornadoes, time between weather changes, and switch between snow and rain;
- Console commands are also available, as documented in the discussion thread.
Version 1.0.1:
- Fixed compatibility with various mods;
- Reduced fog density during tornadoes.
Installation:
- Download the mod archive;
- Move the mod file to the path: C:\Users\UserNAME\Documents\BeamNG.drive\mods.
