Customization of Weather Patterns

Configuring Precipitation Chances

• The chanceOfPrecipitation setting allows users to define the likelihood of precipitation in each season.

• Spring: Often characterized by consistent rainfall, vital for the growth of new plants.

• Summer: Typically sees drier periods, especially in temperate climates.

• Fall: A transitional season with variable rainfall patterns.

• Winter: Marked by frequent snowfalls in cold areas. The plugin configures precipitation as snow rather than rain in winter settings.

Technical Structure

• The configuration file contains percentage values representing the chance of precipitation for each season.

• Example Configuration:

  yamlCopy codechanceOfPrecipitation:
    SPRING: 0   # Set the desired percentage for spring.
    SUMMER: 0   # Set the desired percentage for summer.

    WINTER: 80  # Higher value indicates frequent snowfalls in winter.

Impact on Gameplay
