weather script

Padul · June 22, 2016

can you help me guys? i wrote down some script which had to change weather and some sky gradient, but it doesnt work, can you help me with it?

  
  
local time = getRealTime() 
local hour = time.hour 
  
function nuclearWeather () 
    if (hour >= 1) and (hour <= 5) then 
        setFarClipDistance( 70 )     
        setFogDistance ( 30 ) 
        setSkyGradient(0,0,0,0,0,0) 
        setWeather ( 22 ) 
        setCloudsEnabled ( false ) 
        setSunSize ( 0 ) 
    elseif (hour > 5) and (hour <= 7) then 
        setFarClipDistance( 120 )    
        setFogDistance ( 70 ) 
        setSkyGradient( 0, 14, 12, 14, 13.5, 10 ) 
        setWeather ( 3 ) 
        setCloudsEnabled ( false ) 
        setSunSize ( 2 ) 
    elseif (hour > 7) and (hour <= 11) then 
        setFarClipDistance( 220 )    
        setFogDistance ( 170 ) 
        setSkyGradient( 0, 89, 196, 136, 170, 180 ) 
        setWeather ( 4 ) 
        setCloudsEnabled ( true ) 
        setSunSize ( 2 ) 
    elseif (hour == 20) then 
        setFarClipDistance( 180 )    
        setFogDistance ( 100 ) 
        setSkyGradient( 25, 25, 25, 25, 25, 25 ) 
        setWeather ( 8 ) 
        setRainLevel ( 1.8 ) 
        setWindVelocity ( 0.3, 0.1, 0 ) 
        setCloudsEnabled ( true ) 
        setSunSize ( 2 )     
    else  
        setFarClipDistance( 240 )    
        setFogDistance ( 150 ) 
        resetSkyGradient() 
        setWeather ( 4 ) 
        setCloudsEnabled ( true ) 
        setWindVelocity ( 0, 0, 0 ) 
        setSunSize ( 3 ) 
    end 
    setWaveHeight ( 0 ) 
end 
setTimer(nuclearWeather,1000,0)

remove your local hour and try replacing it with this:

local hour, minute = getTime ( )

no need to edit the

if (hour) stuff.

Padul · June 22, 2016

its working a little, it changes weather everytime i restart script, but not from itself

local hour, minute = getTime () 
  
function nuclearWeather () 
    if (hour >= 1) and (hour <= 5) then 
        setFarClipDistance( 70 )     
        setFogDistance ( 30 ) 
        setSkyGradient(0,0,0,0,0,0) 
        setWeather ( 22 ) 
        setCloudsEnabled ( false ) 
        setSunSize ( 0 ) 
    elseif (hour > 5) and (hour <= 7) then 
        setFarClipDistance( 120 )   
        setFogDistance ( 70 ) 
        setSkyGradient( 0, 14, 12, 14, 13.5, 10 ) 
        setWeather ( 3 ) 
        setCloudsEnabled ( false ) 
        setSunSize ( 2 ) 
    elseif (hour > 7) and (hour <= 11) then 
        setFarClipDistance( 220 )   
        setFogDistance ( 170 ) 
        setSkyGradient( 0, 89, 196, 136, 170, 180 ) 
        setWeather ( 4 ) 
        setCloudsEnabled ( true ) 
        setSunSize ( 2 ) 
    elseif (hour == 20) then 
        setFarClipDistance( 180 )   
        setFogDistance ( 100 ) 
        setSkyGradient( 25, 25, 25, 25, 25, 25 ) 
        setWeather ( 8 ) 
        setRainLevel ( 1.8 ) 
        setWindVelocity ( 0.3, 0.1, 0 ) 
        setCloudsEnabled ( true ) 
        setSunSize ( 2 )    
    else 
        setFarClipDistance( 240 )   
        setFogDistance ( 150 ) 
        resetSkyGradient() 
        setWeather ( 4 ) 
        setCloudsEnabled ( true ) 
        setWindVelocity ( 0, 0, 0 ) 
        setSunSize ( 3 ) 
        setWaveHeight ( 0 ) 
    end 
end 
setTimer(nuclearWeather,1000,0)

if i set server time manualy to eg 20 then it will change the weather, but if the time will change by the time lapse the weather wont change

Put the time vars in your function like so:

 function nuclearWeather () 
    local time = getRealTime() 
    local hour = time.hour 
  
    if (hour >= 1) and (hour <= 5) then 
        setFarClipDistance( 70 )     
        setFogDistance ( 30 ) 
        ...........

When you put the time fuction outside the timer you'll only get the time once. You need to get it every time.

i made mistake and i wanted to put there server time, not real time

ok i made few modifications and i noticed that script works everytime i start it and its not in function kappa

something like this

  
--function nuclearWeather () 
local hour = getTime (hour) 
    if (hour >= 1) and (hour <= 5) then 
        setFarClipDistance( 70 )     
        setFogDistance ( 30 ) 
        setSkyGradient(0,0,0,0,0,0) 
        setWeather ( 22 ) 
        setCloudsEnabled ( false ) 
        setSunSize ( 0 ) 
    elseif (hour > 5) and (hour <= 7) then 
        setFarClipDistance( 120 )   
        setFogDistance ( 70 ) 
        setSkyGradient( 0, 14, 12, 14, 13.5, 10 ) 
        setWeather ( 3 ) 
        setCloudsEnabled ( false ) 
        setSunSize ( 2 ) 
    elseif (hour > 7) and (hour <= 11) then 
        setFarClipDistance( 220 )   
        setFogDistance ( 170 ) 
        setSkyGradient( 0, 89, 196, 136, 170, 180 ) 
        setWeather ( 4 ) 
        setCloudsEnabled ( true ) 
        setSunSize ( 2 ) 
    elseif (hour == 20) then 
        setFarClipDistance( 180 )   
        setFogDistance ( 100 ) 
        setSkyGradient( 25, 25, 25, 25, 25, 25 ) 
        setWeather ( 8 ) 
        setWindVelocity ( 0.3, 0.1, 0 ) 
        setCloudsEnabled ( true ) 
        setSunSize ( 2 )    
    else 
        setFarClipDistance( 240 )   
        setFogDistance ( 150 ) 
        resetSkyGradient() 
        setWeather ( 4 ) 
        setCloudsEnabled ( true ) 
        setWindVelocity ( 0, 0, 0 ) 
        setSunSize ( 3 ) 
        setWaveHeight ( 0 ) 
    end 
    setTimer(nuclearWeather,5000,0) 
--end

do you think that adding event handler will help?

Overkillz · June 23, 2016

It should work now

setTimer(function() 
    local time = getRealTime() 
    local hours = time.hour 
  
    if hours >= 1 and hours <= 5 then 
        setFarClipDistance( 70 )     
        setFogDistance ( 30 ) 
        setSkyGradient(0,0,0,0,0,0) 
        setWeather ( 22 ) 
        setCloudsEnabled ( false ) 
        setSunSize ( 0 ) 
    elseif hours > 5 and hours <= 7 then 
        setFarClipDistance( 120 )   
        setFogDistance ( 70 ) 
        setSkyGradient( 0, 14, 12, 14, 13.5, 10 ) 
        setWeather ( 3 ) 
        setCloudsEnabled ( false ) 
        setSunSize ( 2 ) 
    elseif hours > 7 and hours <= 11 then 
        setFarClipDistance( 220 )   
        setFogDistance ( 170 ) 
        setSkyGradient( 0, 89, 196, 136, 170, 180 ) 
        setWeather ( 4 ) 
        setCloudsEnabled ( true ) 
        setSunSize ( 2 ) 
    elseif hours == 20 then 
        setFarClipDistance( 180 )   
        setFogDistance ( 100 ) 
        setSkyGradient( 25, 25, 25, 25, 25, 25 ) 
        setWeather ( 8 ) 
        setRainLevel ( 1.8 ) 
        setWindVelocity ( 0.3, 0.1, 0 ) 
        setCloudsEnabled ( true ) 
        setSunSize ( 2 )    
    else 
        setFarClipDistance( 240 )   
        setFogDistance ( 150 ) 
        resetSkyGradient() 
        setWeather ( 4 ) 
        setCloudsEnabled ( true ) 
        setWindVelocity ( 0, 0, 0 ) 
        setSunSize ( 3 ) 
    end 
    setWaveHeight ( 0 ) 
end,1000,0)

The problem was that you are not updating the real time.

Now it should works ( Not tested )

i wanted it to get server time, not real kappa so i changed

  
    local time = getRealTime() 
    local hours = time.hour

to

  
    local time = getTime() 
    local hours = time.hour

ERROR: .../weather.lua:4:attempt to index local 'time'

Overkillz · June 23, 2016

getRealTime is a shared function.

Using it as serverside it will give you the current time IN THE SERVER.

Regards.

yeah but ingame time is sometimes diffrent than real time, do you got my point?

Overkillz · June 23, 2016

Not really. might are u getting the same doubt that I got some months ago.

I tried to do a welcome message depending of the time of the player. I was using it as server side, then I didnt know why the players were getting other time, till I read that using getRealTime() as client side you will get the time of the player.

I really cant understand your point yet.

Sorry.

Padul · June 23, 2016

so my intention was to change server weather setting depens on what the currnet ingame time is, eg if the ingame is 20, then the script will set weather to eg 4, also i set the script to server side

Overkillz · June 23, 2016

I thinnk I got you, and as I saw on your comments, you are taking bad the variable getTime()

Try this:

setTimer(function() 
    local hours, minutes = getTime() 
  
  
    if hours >= 1 and hours <= 5 then 
        setFarClipDistance( 70 )     
        setFogDistance ( 30 ) 
        setSkyGradient(0,0,0,0,0,0) 
        setWeather ( 22 ) 
        setCloudsEnabled ( false ) 
        setSunSize ( 0 ) 
    elseif hours > 5 and hours <= 7 then 
        setFarClipDistance( 120 )   
        setFogDistance ( 70 ) 
        setSkyGradient( 0, 14, 12, 14, 13.5, 10 ) 
        setWeather ( 3 ) 
        setCloudsEnabled ( false ) 
        setSunSize ( 2 ) 
    elseif hours > 7 and hours <= 11 then 
        setFarClipDistance( 220 )   
        setFogDistance ( 170 ) 
        setSkyGradient( 0, 89, 196, 136, 170, 180 ) 
        setWeather ( 4 ) 
        setCloudsEnabled ( true ) 
        setSunSize ( 2 ) 
    elseif hours == 20 then 
        setFarClipDistance( 180 )   
        setFogDistance ( 100 ) 
        setSkyGradient( 25, 25, 25, 25, 25, 25 ) 
        setWeather ( 8 ) 
        setRainLevel ( 1.8 ) 
        setWindVelocity ( 0.3, 0.1, 0 ) 
        setCloudsEnabled ( true ) 
        setSunSize ( 2 )   
    else 
        setFarClipDistance( 240 )   
        setFogDistance ( 150 ) 
        resetSkyGradient() 
        setWeather ( 4 ) 
        setCloudsEnabled ( true ) 
        setWindVelocity ( 0, 0, 0 ) 
        setSunSize ( 3 ) 
    end 
    setWaveHeight ( 0 ) 
end,1000,0)
