No weather at mid-game
« on: October 05, 2010, 06:11:35 am »

 Hi all.
 I just noticed something when playing. When I had embarked in the region (Cold, Heavily Forested, Untamed Wilds), rain and snowstorms were constant, and I liked it that way. Then suddenly on the third year (which more or less counts as mid-game for me, since i usually get bored/get killed by fps at year 6 or so), I passed by an autumn, winter, and half a spring with absolutely no weather. None at all. Not a single snowstorm or rain. I then realized it had been the same for every other fort I had that made it past the first two years or so.

 Not a game breaker, but rather disappointing, since I like rainy and snowy days. I assume it was the fps (13-17) that got low, and weather was disabled or something. Anyone else got this little problem?

Didn't touch it at all. I turned off invaders at the start cuz the Dwarven civ was at war with the goblins, and switched it back on after I got some soldiers trained. The weather was still working at that time.

Then I blame El Nino. Expect 3-7 year cycles.

Do you have any weather in your event log?

Nope. I would have noticed it snowing too. Have you got anything like this happen before?
