Only if the effects are purely cosmetic. If there are some features added that make use of the weather effects, logically you shouldn't be able to disable it.

Well, that's what I'm getting at by asking the question... Is there an actual purpose of the rain, and if so what is it?

To make up time to fix the bugs broken spawn rate, slowpoke.

Maybe it's just a simple feature. Just for cosmetic purposes to make the game feel more alive, and as if time is passing.

or because insects tend to take cover when it rains, so it could be for comedic purposes.

Spoiler

I doubt it would be boss related.

Could be to spawn different types of bugs throughout the day.

For example, ants (I know there aren't any on graal), but they move into houses when it gets humid, going to rain, based on the weather.

Snails (Again, no snails) They move into bushes when it rains, and when it stops they leave.

Fireflies at night, probably spiders too, which you can only spot on trees if you have a lantern. It would have to be somewhat dark though.

But yeah, I guess, if it rains, the insects take cover.

Would be nice if they added more, like wind (gravity-like effect at destiny tower)
thunder (get hit by lightning and you drop a few hearts?)

When it rains, higher worm spawn rate?

Would have given more rep to you for this but only allowed to once a day and I spent it on another post of yours. This is deep.  

Pretty appropriate considering today is the first day it has rained IRL in a long time over here...

I think you meant "the old man is snoring...etc." but ok.

ps thx mr coco  

Turned my sound on to see if rain made any noise...

Can we appreciate the fact that they added sound for the rainfall.
If you go inside a building, you can hear the rain a little muzzled.
Once you go into another room, the sound is gone. Pretty nice.


If it weren't for some other annoying sounds, like pogos and what not, I'd keep sound on.  

Really like this, good work. Makes the server feel a little more alive (like old graal2001 )!

I wonder why message sounds (and rain) can't be made to count as 'music' and not 'sounds' in the menu relating to if they are toggled on or off?


On an unrelated note, the Blob indicator from my map doesn't seem to show now... anyone seen the giant blob appear since the rain started?  

I think it'd be cool if we could use these pots of water to put out this fire, and then through the fireplace was a little room with stuff... Or a quest? Idk just ideas

I started to troll everyone with water pots from destiny but it ended up becoming an actual feature, well done me

When I saw that I was like "Eh my gowd!" Logic actually is in graal *0*  

Wish there was a disable button, definitely lags me a lot for some reason.
