weather
The scene's weather: a preset (clear, overcast, rain, storm, thunderstorm, snow, fog, hurricane) at an intensity, blending over `transition` seconds when changed. Drives one wind field (gust fronts, turbulence, rotating storm cells), the plants' wind, the clouds, rain or snow around the camera, lightning and thunder, fog and surface wetness. One per scene; without it nothing changes.

Fields 15
| Field | Type | Unit / range | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|
preset | text | — | clear, overcast, rain, storm, thunderstorm, snow, fog or hurricane. |
intensity | number | 0 … 1 | 0 calm ... 1 the full preset. |
transition | number | s, 0 … 3600 | Seconds a change takes to blend in (0: at once). |
wind_heading | number | deg, -1 … 360 | Compass heading the wind blows toward; -1 keeps the preset's. |
wind_speed | number | m/s, -1 … 90 | Mean wind at 10 m; -1 keeps the preset's. |
gusts | number | 0 … 4 | Gust strength over the preset's (1 as is). |
turbulence | number | 0 … 4 | Turbulence over the preset's (1 as is). |
seed | number | 0 … 1 | Same seed, same gusts, storm tracks and lightning. |
storm_center | (x, y, z) | m | Centre of the area storm cells roam and lightning strikes in (x, z). |
storm_area | number | m, 100 … 200 | Radius of that area. |
drive_plants | true / false | — | Plants sway with this weather's wind instead of the scene's wind component. |
drive_clouds | true / false | — | The clouds layer follows this weather's cover, thickness, altitude and drift. |
drive_ocean | true / false | — | A spectral sea's wind follows this weather's: storms raise the waves and whitecaps, calms lay them down. |
precipitation_fx | true / false | — | Rain or snow around the camera (outdoors only). |
cycle | list of text | — | A weather cycle: entries "<preset> <seconds> [intensity]" played in order and again, each blending in over `transition` (e.g. clear 90, overcast 45, fog 40, rain 60, thunderstorm 50, overcast 30). Empty: the preset all the time. |
