Weather System

First, I just want to say that building in Ares is pretty awesome. My wife is getting into MUing and she’s helping me build the grid for my game and teaching her how to build in Ares took only 5 minutes. It would have taken most of a day in TinyMUX.

We did have one question though, is there a way to toggle the weather system off for indoor areas? Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback!

In the weather climate list, you can set up a climate for each ‘area’. If you set up all your indoor rooms to use an area of ‘Interior’ then you could then set the climate for that area to ‘none’ to disable weather.

climate_for_area:
    Offstage: none
    North: polar
    Interior: none

You could also do this for multiple areas - like if you have a bunch of residences in a neighborhood or a shopping mall you could create an area for that neighborhood/mall and add it to the climate list.
