Introduction

Weather conditions affect survival gameplay, visibility, and atmosphere in HumanitZ. Whether you want a calmer environment with mostly clear skies or a harsher world with frequent storms and blizzards — by adjusting the weather settings, you can control how often different weather types occur.

Configuration

The weather settings are controlled in the GameServerSettings.ini file. You can find this file in the Configuration tab of your game server (raw text view). In the configuration file, you will find the following parameters:

Code

;Here you can adjust the probabilities for each weather type. The current season still determines which weather types can occur.
Weather_ClearSky=1
Weather_Cloudy=1
Weather_Foggy=1
Weather_LightRain=1
Weather_Rain=1
Weather_Thunderstorm=1
Weather_LightSnow=1
Weather_Snow=1
Weather_Blizzard=1

Each setting represents the relative probability that the corresponding weather type will occur. Higher values increase the chance that this weather type will be selected during weather generation, while lower values decrease it.

For example:

Weather_ClearSky=3 increases the chance of clear skies compared to other weather types
Weather_Blizzard=0 effectively disables blizzards (unless forced by seasonal logic)

Calm Weather

This example prioritizes calm weather and reduces extreme conditions:

Code

Weather_ClearSky=3
Weather_Cloudy=2
Weather_Foggy=1
Weather_LightRain=1
Weather_Rain=0
Weather_Thunderstorm=0
Weather_LightSnow=1
Weather_Snow=0
Weather_Blizzard=0

Intense Weather

This example increases the likelihood of intense and dynamic weather:

Code

Weather_ClearSky=1
Weather_Cloudy=1
Weather_Foggy=2
Weather_LightRain=2
Weather_Rain=3
Weather_Thunderstorm=2
Weather_LightSnow=1
Weather_Snow=2
Weather_Blizzard=2

After editing, save the file and restart the game server for the new weather settings to take effect.

By adjusting the Weather_ values in the GameServerSettings.ini (e.g., Weather_ClearSky, Weather_Rain, Weather_Blizzard) — each value represents the relative probability of that weather type; higher values increase the chance.
