READ THIS ALL It would be pretty cool if ROBLOX made a weather system for us. It would be in the lighting, it would be selectable between rain and snow. Some customization settings would be speed, how intense the weather is, and maybe some color customization settings. Beofre you say "Script it", if ROBLOX made this, it would turn out better and alot less laggy then if a user made it. Any support?

How can you guarantee that is will be "alot less laggy"?

The main premise of this game is building your own world. Not just choosing pre made pieces and sliding them together. This could easily be scripted and would only cause lag if the code is inefficient.

@robloxking Incase you can't read, I said "Beofre you say script it, it would be better if ROBLOX themselves made it".

@Rock That way of scripting it which I said uses billboardGUIs. It's low lag, while the current ones are laggy.

No support. ROBLOX isn't here to make you games for you. So, just make it yourself. Also, since this is OPTIONAL, why not just get a weather script from 'Free Models'? What else are they there for? “I choose a lazy person to do a hard job. Because a lazy person will find an easy way to do it.” ― Bill Gates

Weather already exists for the most part. HOWEVER, it isn't possible to make realistic rain/snow, so for that reason, I support.

"No support. ROBLOX isn't here to make you games for you. So, just make it yourself. Also, since this is OPTIONAL, why not just get a weather script from 'Free Models'? What else are they there for?" But you could say the same for vehicleseats. Those were very scriptable but it allowed people who didn't want/know how to script to make realistic vehicles which is a GOOD thing. Why don't we say the same for brick properties? Easily scriptable, but the properties were there to make it easier. Support, once again.

Over suggested. Thats right im guessing. When roblox makes stuff, to me its usually a lot less laggy for some reason.

@sonic That's because the mods can use a fast, and more efficient way of programing.

"You can easily script this." No, you can't.
