Category:	Landscape
Question:	Hi there, Will we ever see, basically more realistic weather? Like rain in the day time.Maybe certain climate zones of Dereth, Like maybe a constantly rainy section of the Northwest. A very hot and tropical "equator" region. Also maybe a noticable change in seasons, mainly snow in the winter months and longer and shorter days. Just wondering because the game is VERY immersive and this would make it even more so I feel. Thanks for a great game.

Answer:	Rain in AC is not regional. If it rains in one place it rains everywhere. This won't change in AC. It is something we are investigating for our new engine, however.
