for too long now, the daylight cycle and weather system in tsw has been unfit for purpose; tell me why it gets dark at 20:00 in june, and snows anytime you select rain between december and march. both of these are highly unrealistic and the whole system needs significant refinements to make it immersive
Yeah, just create a live weather version that rips the weather from one of the free weather API's that are available in the world. Genuinely don't understand why this hasn't been implemented now we are on version 6 of TSW.

I think not having the ability to choose rain between dec-mar is annoying, as it only let’s you select snow. Personally that’s not my biggest issue, I think the clouds could do with some improvements. They are way too much white and overexposed looking at times and not enough overcast looking skies and clouds looking darker. Overcast should be a new pre set weather condition. It’s very realistic here in the UK, most of the year the skies always indicate to me it’s going to pee down at some point 99% of the time, but it doesn’t always.
The most interesting thing is that on UK routes they set up config for a realistic sunset time, but the all the other countries... who needs them, anyway. I would also really want this terrible paleness in heavily cloudy weather will be fixed.
Glad you brought that up. Those pinky, orange sunsets need to go or toned down slightly. We get Miami, Florida looking sunsets that we see maybe 4 or 5 times a year if we’re lucky here in the UK.
Different weather and lighting presets for different regions? Yes, please. It'll never happen, since they haven't even been able to fix the sunset time for years. But we can dream about it.
