weather changes

If it's no bug or an idea, but it's still MUD-related, it goes here.

It used to be there right after reboot, then vanish. It is persistent now, ie... appears fixed. Like he said. Thank you.

However... one small problem I have seen. I have seen lightning coming seemingly out of the blue. Light clouds, no storm, but lightning hitting my horse, or people. I appreciate the lightning, I love it. I like it penalizing those who do not take cover during bad weather... but when there is generally nice weather, I question why it is striking. Perhaps a mage was having fun, I don't know. But there were no other visible pc's in the room when my horse was hit. Decent weather, and an instant later, BLAM! Bolt from the blue to the poor animal, or pc as I have heard.

I have a feeling that the lightning was not a natural occurrence at all.

Agreeing with Delia, for somewhat obvious reasons.

Eirikeld--notice that recently, the weather near Arborea has been mostly cloudy/stormy/rainy.
There are very few personal problems that cannot be solved by a suitable application of high explosives.
