Same, it something I'd like to 'learn' about the area I've settled in. But it may not be a thing in the game as yet / if ever.

I'm enjoying my 'common' rain area that I've setup my abode. Was quite weird last night with a thunderstorm happening in the game while an IRL thunderstorm was happening outside. The thunder hitting in game while a slow deep bass rumble was felt from outside made for a neat experience. Aside from turning to snow, I was wondering if the rain was seasonal at all? By seasonal, I mean, does the intensity / frequency change throughout the year? Would be awesome for the rain to be mapped to a skewed distribution that related to time of year/climate. Was looking into the viability of a 'rain gauge' mod, but if the rain algorithm is just a RNG variable (taking into climate frequency) then any long term data would just be a squiggly line with no interesting pattern. The idea of checking and emptying a rain gauge just seems on point for this games pace and it's idea of deliberate and methodical processes that become rewarding over time.

mostly for exploration with the aim to find a suitable new south location. Didn't want to wait to repair the teleporters.

I had this behaviour and just turned off full screen and resized the screen to my screen.

Attempted to plan my trip south to look for a holiday home location (walking) Broke out the spreadsheet and stopwatch to do some maths for how long the trip will take: I'm about 20k from the Equator Walking speed 204 blks/min 1 Day (48mins) 9792 blks Hunger while Walking ~68 sat/min 1 Day (48mins) 3264 sat (2.2 full hunger bars) However, I'm a magnet for death drop holes in the ground, so I've rather walk with a torch at nighttime Walking speed 204 blks/min Daylight (30mins) 6120 blks Nighttime(18mins) 3672 blks Hunger while Walking (with Torch) ~82 sat/min Daylight (30mins) 2040 sat (1.4 full hunger bar) Nighttime(18mins) 1469 sat (~1 full hunger bar) So I'll need food that will cover refilling my hunger bar about 2.5 times (or about 7500 satiation) per 10k blocks travelled. Not using the teleporter network as yet (nice slow play through for this instance) I have a lot of food to cook, but at least I know I can make it in about 2-3 days depending on detours and wolf/bear avoidance
