    Simple weather enhancement for haze

    Would Team Fusion be able to consider a simple enhancement to the weather system which would greatly improve realism? I do not mean by saying this to criticize the current weather and clouds, which look great.

    I am referring to visibility and an additional option to set it to various values - e.g. mist (less than 500 meters), haze (500 meters to 2 Km or so), and so on up to the 50 Km or so which is the default value for CLoD.

    In real life visibility is rarely as good as CLoD depicts, and reduced vis would add interesting complexity to missions.

    I am assuming here that this would not be too technically complex to do (the old IL2 1946 did a really nice poor vis haze effect with Weather set on 'Poor' I believe, so presumably easy to do).

    Great news, thanks. Even just current clouds plus haze would be another significant step forward in realism.

    The more weather the better!

    May I ask how to reach the objects who control weather? I can't find any connection to WWeather class.

    I think the weather now is loaded when the mission starts. I don't think there is any provision for changing it while the mission is running.
