work perfect on a single region map

[THEMAX]

@Lobby do you think you could do a json for on click fun ( or like weather generator ) so when we interact with a building, there is a different time ( day / night / sunset ...Etc... )

[Lobby]

You can do that by using variables. Any specific questions?

[THEMAX]

Not very experienced with thoses but I will try ^^

[JustAnyone]

Yes, Max, because those overlays are changed by fun.

[-LeoLeo-]

So... These overlays are just .png displaying on top of the actual game, huh?

Is there a way to make it like... A photo filter? Like different action & values for deferent R, G &B?

[Kulche]

Can these be animated, just like the rain?

[CommanderABab]

It is an animation.

[Lobby]

It's an animation, but it will only use the first frame of it. Could be possible to change that behavior. Depending on your requirement you could actually replace the rain frames by using Lua.
