I just really want random weather events.

[eee]

Like rain and snow. Thunderstorms, also.

 

OH AND WAVES

you kinda dont want a storm to suddenly appear and destroy the most expensive rocket you have been working on

Some people do. I might.

And that's the thing with mods. They're optional.

100% supported. I'm really into flying and building aircrafts, and some more difficulties and challenges there would be greatly appreciated. I know there are one or two wind mods, one requires FAR, but that one is quite old already as well and it was only of limited functionality.

So yeah, storm cells, sudden turbulences would really be amazing to have! I'd code it if only I had the programming knowledge.

Yeah, I have SVE and EVE, and it would be amazing.

But didnt you code a mod I have?

Think Kottoboss Games reviewed it.

Most people play in sandbox, and it might be a difficulty setting. Hard mode on career? More storms. Stuff like that.

Oh, there is a mod that adds wind noises. Just the noises, though.

I didnt make it cus I cant code.

I've actually been thinking about how to tackle a somewhat procedural weather system (No code or textures made, just me looking into it on a conceptual/technical level). The programming to actually do a very rough weather simulation isn't actually all that complex, the difficult parts would be making it perform well, integrating it with things like FAR and the actual clouds themselves. You'd need something like volumetric clouds that could grow, change and develop depending on conditions, and i don't know enough about KSP to know if it would support something like that (And even if it did, again performance is the main question).

And the performance end would be a bit tricky; you'd likely need to take a principia-escue approach and have a C# interface that takes your C++ code output and hands it over to KSP. There was a mod that was made for older KSP that tried doing some of this, but it's been abandoned for years, performs pretty badly and is ARR. If i had more time it would be an interesting project, but I'm unlikely to attempt it personally.

Uh Yeah I do.
