weather calendar symbol conditions
What functionality is missing? What is unsatisfying with the current situation?
I'd love to have the ability to add specific weatherconditions to a day in the calender. For now there's no possibility to display it to be seen directly. Perfect would be a symbol which is displayed like the moonphases. Depending on the world you could insert a hover-tooltip, what the specifics are - for rainy weather you could specify what kind of rain (Water? Ash? Blood? Acid? Something completely different?) for example or what temperature it is (this would be a roleplay-specific feature I'd say, since weather may change in different areas of course). Possible weatherconditions:- Storm/Thunder
- Rainy
- Heavy Rain
- Cloudy
- Cloudy, but sunny
- Meteors
- Mist
- Smog
- Snow
- Hail
- Windy
- Mixed weather/Miscellaneous
- Specific name for the condition?
- Temperature
- How light or heavy is the weathercondition?
- Windspeed
- Effects (like magical effects or physical)
- Linked article for more/specific informations
How does this feature request address the current situation?
If you want to add weather, you could just make a new entry inside the calendar, but it would be only visible as a title or you have to specifically click it.What are other uses for this feature request?
You could define rainseasons or duration of storms for example. As a Dungeon Master you could prepare the fitting weather for the group without thinking "Was it warm or was it rainy yesterday?" You just can have a look! :) Makes documentation a lot easier and it reminds me as a Dungeon Master to talk about the weather itself more, to create a better immersion for my players.The Team's Response
Yes, with the next version of the Calendar

on 2021-07-17 12:54this might be good, if there'd be calendars of specific year-month-days of the past that could be saved but on calendar has it stands now not sure would be so helpful has would need to edit the calendar every time the weather would be different on a given day of a given month of a different year.

on 2021-07-15 21:49I feel like this isn't exactly the intended purpose of the calendar feature-- unlike moon phases, weather conditions do not repeat in a perfectly predictable manner, and the calendar system seems (at least in my understanding of it) to be more about patterns and things that repeat predictably. Like, the calendar displays a full moon on Thirdday of the Ninth Month or whenever because it is known that that is absolutely going to happen because it follows a noted pattern. The exception may be cyclical weather, like LeighThalion mentioned, but otherwise, I don't think the calendar is the place to be tracking weather.

on 2021-07-10 14:48As a writer of epic fantasy grimdark, and historical westerns, I would find it very valuable to have a weather tracker feature. Especially with as much time as my characters spend outside in the winter months.

on 2021-07-10 02:32We have recurring weather conditions in our world. It would be nice to be able to add them to the calendar. Especially since they have a pretty heavy impact on the plot at times.

on 2021-07-08 15:19I feel that this, as written, is incredibly specific and has potential to become over-complicated. A more narrow application might be more helpful, especially for recurring weather patterns like wet and dry monsoons.
