Yes, multiple ideas. Contrary to popular belief, it's not illegal*. Anyway, here's a list of ideas that could really help with ambience: AUTO AMBIENCE: This idea is somewhat self-explanatory, but I may as well cover the specifics of it. Basically, setting this to true would automatically set the Ambient and OutdoorAmbient to be in-line with the skybox colour and TimeOfDay. For further effect, ColorShift_Bottom and ColorShift_Top could also stay in-line. CUSTOM CELESTIAL BODIES: The number of times I've wanted a custom sun and moon that move with TimeOfDay is too darn high (yes, that's meant to be a meme - I'm playing it safe with 'darn'). This could take the url of an approved decal and set the custom sun/moon to the decal of choice. STAR MOVEMENT: Is it just me, or do the stars not move with TimeOfDay? Even better still would be the ability to set the star positions independently to TimeOfDay with another similar value - useful for if you want the skybox evening colouration to show throughout the night but still want the stars to move. WEATHER EFFECTS? This one is a little far-fetched, but it would be a nice addition. I remember some of the ROBLOX staff talking about volumetric clouds a while back, so it may already be in development. That being said, if anyone working on rendering happens to read this post, it'd be nice to have a yes or no answer to whether or not it's being thought about. :D *The number of times I've had tl;dr replies makes me want to hit my head on the nearest solid object.

This doesn't seem to be getting as much attention as the troll threads... Am I missing something?

Auto Ambience; I'm sorry, but this is not to hard to script. Custom Celestial Bodies; YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES Star Movement; Yeah, the night sky needs some more into it. Weather Effects; Easily scriptable, I can try making clouds that actually look puffy and stuff.

About auto ambience: To my knowledge, there's no API for fetching a colour sample from a skybox, meaning it's pretty hard to match the fog colour. Weather effects: Scripting this can get pretty laggy; like with raycasting, a built-in system for this would be more beneficial.

I'm assuming the S&I forum is more active during this time; bring up my post.
