Description

Simple Weather is an add-on for GMod that was formerly a paid mod and later released for free when it was discontinued by the original author, disseminate. This upload includes the base add-on & Disaster DLC packs, with a huge list of changes, improvements, and additions made by yours truly.

My goals for Simple Weather try their best to meet these specific criteria:

Full User Control - As little hard-coded bits as possible, and allow the user as much control over the mod as reasonable.
Run Light - Have the mod has as little performance impact as possible, and keep disk storage usage reasonably low.
Feature Rich - Have the mod use a "more with less" mentality, where it prioritizes quality over quantity.

Features

Day-Night Cycle, with optional real-time clock.
Random weather, with options to control frequency/duration/toggle.
Functionality for map input control (toggle street lights, etc.).
HUD that can show current time (in either 12H or 24H mode) and weather, with options to disable.
Options panels for quick changing of values and behavior in-game without map restarts.
Weather can control env_wind based on weather type.
Snowy weather can change map textures to look snowy.
Hazardous weathers can be controlled to change amount/frequency of damage, or disabled outright.
Presets for default, potato computers, and hardcore modes, with the ability to customize your own.
Emergency Alert System sounds that will play out of standard radio props when inclement weather starts - no special entities needed in your maps or your contraptions!
A myriad of other features you'll have to try for yourself, as I suck at descriptions.

The map used in the screenshots is RP_Flatgrass_Redux, which is my testbed for this mod & other mods. It supports SimpleWeather's map logic functions.

Is there any way to simple disable the day-night cycle and have it return to the map's default lighting without just pausing it?

[Simple Weather] lua/simpleweather/sv_daynight.lua:445: bad argument #1 to 'byte' (string expected, got nil)
1. byte - [C]:-1
2. DayNightThink - lua/simpleweather/sv_daynight.lua:445
3. fn - lua/simpleweather/sv_init.lua:265

Try disabling the weather sound and reenable it.

this is a great mod but only down side to this mod is sometimes the rain sound cuts off even when it's thunder I can still hear it but the rain sounds just cuts off I don't know others though but still great mod.
