Denied [EVENT SERVER ONLY] gStorms.

[Ronin]

What does this suggestion change/add/remove: Add this mod to the event server with GMs having the ability to modify it's server-side settings and placing down the needed weather entities.

Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?: No.

Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):

- Weather
- Immersion

Possible Negatives of the suggestion:

- Some FPS issues but because it's on event, I cannot imagine it being any worse than live.

Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted: Why not? It's a good addon and it helps with events.

Hi @Ronin

I am considering putting this for dev review to ensure the code is safe, however I was testing this myself and noticed it could hinder GM events with props as the storms can dislodge and throw away key props and entities.

Im not sure if that would cause significant issues as it feels almost like a tradeoff.

That's unfortunate -
Does this include GMObjs?

Is there some way to add a configuration setting to GMObjs to prevent being affected by a storm?

There is a setting that allows you to turn that on and off, that is why I asked to give GMs the server configuration for it.

Hi @Ronin

After speaking with the Development team, this addon has reviewed and deemed that its an addon that is not up to standard to be used on a live production environment.

As such we will not be adding this to the event server.

Kind regards
