[Standalone] Storms and Environmental Hazards

Recommended Posts

Just an idea for Standalone is the introduction of storms and other Natural hazards.

For example, one current map, Namalsk has a "blowout" effect, while I don't suggest anything like that its something nice to have. Some kind of hazard that exists in the world, happens randomly and instills some kind of negative effect to all those that stand in front of it.

The storms I'm thinking of is heavy torrental rain which cause flooding, high winds or hurricanes (to the point trees get uprooted), possibly heavy snow fall and intense tidal currents which could capsize boats and potentially damage nearby coastal villages.

As for natural hazards, how about mudslides and rock slides caused from heavy rain, fires caused by intense heat during dry summer days or as a very rare example, lightning striking an object or even player, at say a 1/1,000,000 chance

It'd be awesome, but I'm not sure the engine could handle it. I'm pretty sure they want to do very realistic weather but I'm not sure how realistic they can get.
