Visual tweaks for winter

Deep water tiles can freeze, basically like an ice shelf. But at these locations we still get this visual effect:

Under the water it looks like just the typical edge of a haven shore, instead of an icy shelf.

Actual weather effects are also needed visually now I think, the entire snow accumulation process just didn't feel like the onset of winter. And rain would be nice in spring.

Agreed, but that felt like too much to ask for. I still think a lot could be accomplished if there was some way to apply a texture overlay onto current textures, but I think one of them said how this wasn't very feasible with current code.

Im gonna revive this thread just bc i think it would be pretty cool if they added weather such as heavy rain, light rain, snow, maybe even take it a step further and add natural disasters like earth quakes, tornadoes, what if there were valcanoes or something that would erupt and after a day or 2 the lava hardened and you could pick at it to receive molten rock that can then be used for other stuff like curio or something.

back to weather though. you could add some kind of tempature mechanic that when its too hot you dont want to wear lots of clothing or your stamina drops faster than it would, or in the rain you could get sick with a cold or something ( jorb loves random wounds right ;) ) just a thought.

god herb stop giving him bad wound ideas... he'll actually add them.
i do want more aesthetic stuff the leaves falling from trees in fall is AMAZING. stop adding dumb gimmicks to seasons that you take months to fix or balance instead make it purely cosmetic.
see homo sexuality trending,. do not do that.
