[Suggestion] Day - Night

[michi]

Hi,

I think it would be great if you can choose which day time on a server is. A poll like Map, but you can choose between for example morning, midday, afternoon, dawn, night.

Please TW, please add such a feature. Weather and time of day can add a lot more variety into standart battles.

 

[Giledhil]

Definitely yes ! And we need weather options too !

on a quick search i've found five threads about this, there are probably more. Very important, would add so much to the game. I wonder why it hasn't been adressed yet and I fear its too late if they havn't worked on it already.

wouldn't require a lot of coding since its already a feature in game... but then again I can't code to save my life

Just a thought but maybe they dont have rain or fog on the maps because of the interior sections? I cant remember ever having weather effects during a siege in vanilla M&B and every other scenario only had at most buildings that you couldnt enter. So with maps like village and the siege maps which do have interior parts this would probably be a problem, unless they have zoning or something to tell the game where to apply weather effects.

The only maps I remember getting weather on were the randomly generated open plains maps, no buildings, no interior sections.

I suggested it on the bugtracker not long ago. Keep in mind that there are more pressing issues that need the attention of the developers, so this may go unchanged. BUT! Also keep in mind that this may (may) be so easy to implement they are going to wait for closer to release versions to implement it!

Oh, that's right. Well, I'll check SP to see if we get the different weather in sieges... Yes, we do. It does rain in the interiors, though, but that's a problematic bug that has been around for some time. It seems hard to fix

The time of the day shouldn't suffer those problems though.

Yes me wants day/nigh/weather !

I, for one, would gladly accept a little rain on the inside of the occasional barn if it meant we could have variable weather on all maps. The only time it would be an issue at all, in my opinion, would be on castle maps, since they have a fairly large "inside" portion. I wonder if they could make it so that scenes could be assigned "allowed weather types" or something...

At the very least, day and night should cause no such issues.

Yes!
A simple feature that greatly improves the game.
