Nikita LisitsaTesting weather simulation & biome distribution on the default map. Too much water vapour on the south, too big a desert in the center of the main island (on the left), but imo overall it looks pretty interesting already!
toerror@toerror Nope, just local temperature
@lisyarus If you wanted to get clouds inland then IRL, that's why you get that happening.
Also, day / night heating up the land and causing air to rise and form clouds.

Doug Binks@dougbinks @lisyarus I have implemented lapse rate in my own atmospheric model, and a simple set of greenhouse approximations... I can still only get to within +-10 degrees C at locations on earth, but it's not a bad approximation I guess...
I'm told that IRL it's not quite the dew point you're interested in because that would actually be way too cold - you get dew formation on dust particles at a much higher temperature, so somthing to finger in the air tweak in a game IMO.

@dougbinks @lisyarus In fact, I hear that one of the reasons Manchester gets so much rain is because of pollen coming off the heather on the moors seeding cloud formation. ( Also might be why clouds fail to form over deserts? Not 100% on that one - think I heard that somewhere. )
