players on the same server with different weather / fog?

Recommended Posts

So ever since 1.0 released, I've noticed that sometimes when playing, it will be a clear day, then suddenly out of nowhere a fog is suddenly " Switched on" . It doesn't slowly roll in, it magically appears. But, for my friends i play with they have no fog at all. And apparently they rarely/never do, even though we're right next to eachother wherever we may be in the landscape. To top it off, sometimes it will even start to rain on my screen, affecting my player, but not the other people i play with with that I run alongside. Does this mean weather and fog is client-side now?  Sometimes the fog is very very thick for me, while my friend has a clear day. If people are running around with different weathers, this can mean some players have an unfair advantage over those without this thick fog.

Nothing in the settings I have found seems to do anything about this issue, either.  Does anyone else have similar experiences?

I haven’t been playing with friends this patch (they all think it’s still alpha in the state it’s in) but have you been on official or community servers or both and seen this happen?

That would be a terrible thing if all the weather was client side ....

I have been playing on both official AND community servers with this problem appearing. Both private and public ones. He could see for  several hundreds of metres, I could barely see for a hundred metres right next to eachother. It's been like this most of the time. My computer is very high end playing on all the highest settings. His computer is a bit lower end, playing on medium settings.
