Description

Description:
Set rain density smoothly over the given transition time (in seconds). A transition time of zero means an immediate change. A rain density of zero is no rain, one is maximum rain. Rain is not possible when overcast is less than 0.7.
Arma 3
Since Arma 3 this command is MP synchronised:
  • If executed on server, the changes will propagate globally.
  • If executed on client, the effect is temporary and will soon change to the server setting.
Minimum overcast needed for rain in Arma 3 is 0.5.
Multiplayer:
Pre-Arma 3, each client and the server could have different rain values.
Groups:

Using Example 2 on dedicated server might need additional interference on JIP clients. The reason is that JIP has rain value > 0 slowly changing to 0. To force client to sync one can execute this on client: skipTime 1; skipTime -1;
