Overview

Setting up Battles

Multiplayer

Technical / Modding Related Information

Advanced Conditions

The available options in the advanced conditions menu selection in BI are:
Season:

  • Summer
  • winter

Weather:

  • Random
  • Calm
  • Hazy
  • Heavy Rain
  • Light Rain
  • Light Fog
  • Dense Fog

Time of Day:

  • Sunrise
  • Morning
  • Midday
  • Evening
  • Sunset
  • Night

Some of the above appear to tie up with weather conditions / timings mentioned in descr_daytypes.txt but others do not or are missing. For example Light Rain does not exist as a named weather condition in daytypes. Spring and Autumn settings which are in daytypes are not given as an option in custom battle selection. It might be that they are used randomly when selecting 'Summer' mode - NB. needs confirmation.

The 'Random' weather selection will use the conditions applied to that season and climate type in descr_daytypes.txt according to their probability values. Specifically selecting 'Calm' for instance will mean that weather type is used even if it is not listed for the relevant climate in daytypes.
