alternate times of day - freiwulf - 06-01-2012

iv been pondering on this idea whilst playing and thought id bring it here as this is what this area is for so here goes

four different time states of the day starting from dawn all the way to night
heres it how i thought it could be

dawn :- a distant sunrise and a low fog
afternoon :- a strong sun partially cloudy bright visable map
evening :- cloudy (maybe raining)
night :- bright moon clear sky torchs around valuable spots (like shrines and things like that)

thanks for reading this is one of many ideas i have but one i have really thought about  Big Grin

It would be a nice idea if weather effects affected bots. Things like fog and rain would definitely decrease visibility, giving an obvious disadvantage to archers. Of course, it would be deleterious to infantry and cavalry alike -- though the side effects wouldn't be as obvious (e.g. not knowing every direction of the enemy approach). If the bots had equal troubles aiming through fog, then it might work better.

Currently, the fog on mountain pass allows enemy rangers to fire at you from their spawn while your friendly archers are given no recourse.
