Add winter storm's randomly and ass frostbite if you're cought in them!

It comes evenly, not in spots. except if its like windy and cold and only very very small amount comes, then there may be spots, but not spots like currently in game.

I think it would also be nice if by default there was little snowflake particles falling from the sky when outside. That would really up the immersion. Kind of like this but better integrated: https://imgur.com/UxHX9Aa

This would be cool but would probably drop your average fps to ~8.

Not necessarily, they are quite light computationally when compared to more complex things like 3d models of the game. So some simple effect may not affect fps at all.

Looks a lot better now. Wishing we don't have to experience that mess next winter (or when the spring comes)

+1. Make it either "snow" or "no snow", the accumulation is too slow (and, most likely, it'll be disappearing at the same rate).

Now that it's 90% snow and ice I even found a way to enjoy (well, "enjoy is a strong word, maybe let's change it to "tolerate" Winter) while kicksledding around.

Transition to snow/ice should be quicker

Postby MightySheep » Sat Apr 11, 2020 5:35 am

The transition phase is kinda gay. Everything looks stupid, all the negatives of winter without the positive of kicksleds. We're half way through winter now and its only just become full kicksled mode. Also it looks especially bad with tile transitions off. Nobody likes having to play the stupid game of zigzaging all over the place to avoid nonsnow tiles in kicksled.

It should get the transition fully over with in like 1-2 days max.
