Do weather and time change during custom (not campaign) battles? I never really noticed anything and during a test on 4x speed the sun did not move and it kept raining. And that made me doubt wether there is any change at all during battles.

Thanks,
DJ

I doubt it, the weather system is very simplistic compared to STW/MTW.

Thanks. That is not that bad though. I'll show screenshots of what I intend to do in a few hours on our Lordz forums. We should be able to create very atmospheric weather effects.

I've had weather conditions change in custom battles i think, but time does not change, it will not go from morning to midday to evening to night.

Yea, I noticed weather change. More evident if you use Skymod by Archer since he added more weather effects like sand storm etc. But I never seen it change from night to day or vice versa.

Doesn't the time change a bit during longer timed battles? Perhaps not.

There's a random seed that determines the weather I think, so battles can start off fine then turn into a thunderstorm and vice versa.

I“mnot sure about custom battles, but in campaign battles the weather definitely can change. The time, as in time of day, however, seems to remain the same during the whole battle.
