    For this to work, do I have to check Clouds roll in/out ?

    Another doubt. How the climate on the server should be defined. Script or sunny?

    Yes check roll in/out
    As the plugin takes over control, and does not let loose, it shouldnt matter what type in rf2. As scripted clears other functions you probably will go with scripted anyway

    Dear Stefan_L_01

    The rF2WeatherPlugin is very useful and very good.
    I always use this plugin in my server.
    Thank you!

    BTW, I ask you a small Question.
    In this case, rain is 15% when R=1.4343mm/Hour.
    Maybe, Rain % is about 10 times R.

    But I felt "15% rain" is strong.
    Because, I arbitrarliy understood to "rain% = mm/hour".

    Please let me know your Interpretation to rain%.

    You found it allready
    Yes rain rate is up to me but you can scale it by rain mod to your taste.
    1mm/h is a good amount of rain allready in reality
    Note that wetness buildup gets slower and slower with more wetness, and lots of cars dry the road also lot

    Hello Stefan, is it possible to set the % amount of water in track? I mean, if you can directly set it to be for example 40% of wet track (I mean the amount of water in the track, not the rain intensity).

    My league wants to implement a red flag procedure, it works as follows: when we reach 95% of water in the track, we launch a SC, we stop the engine in the pit lane and we relaunch the race after X minutes. In those minutes, we would like to set the water in the track in about 60%, so we can relaunch the race in just 10 minutes instead of waiting and waiting minutes for a miracle.

    Regards.

    Hi Alejandro
    No its not possible for a plugin.
    You could try out whether higher temps dry faster (dont know myself), then you could switch to manual mode with 99C, and later back to api
    However imo nothing dries as fast as driving cars

    I keep on getting webquery failed: The remote server returned an error: (403) Forbidden.

    This is how I set up the client:
    The plugin is in <rFactor 2>\Bin64\Plugins
    The program is in a tool folder of the same PC
    The CustomPluginVariables.JSON have this configuration :
    "WeatherControlPlugin.dll":{
    " Enabled":1,
    "UID":0
    },
    The rF2GeoData.xml is in User AppData\Roaming\rF2WeatherPlugin\

    What I did was I delete everything that is associated to the rf2WeatherClient. Then I re downloaded the zip file. After I re downloaded the zip file I went back through the steps to get it working and I got it working now. However, I have no clue what I did wrong but the main thing is that I got it right and it is now working.

    Is it possible to have the app only allow one instance? I just had the unfortunate occurrence of a batch file executing the program over and over and over by accident which is not ideal :)

    No, please.
    We have several rF2 servers working at the same time in the same machine and everyone works with one instance ot this program.

    I'll rephrase.... a CONFIGURABLE one instance option. Just a thought ;)

    That would be perfect for all, but not as easy than make the program "one Instance only" by default.
    Only for clarifying, the "non optional" option, at least in de programming languages that i use, can be done clicking a checkbox.
    To make it optional, has to be done by the developer and is far more difficult.

    Hi all. It appears to be working but I'm just after the ideal values for live weather. Great plugin.

    Thanks

    Hi Stefan,

    can you tell me why on some tracks the value is "null"?

    Oulton Park -> OK
    Zandvoort 2020 -> not OK
    Donington Park -> OK
    Nürburgring -> not OK

    Thanks

    Otherwise a really nice Plugin

    Hi Disco
    I can reproduce it. The API response is "null" for precipitation instead of "0". "Null" term is undefined value (more likely null-pointer actually). I ll dig into in next weak. Maybe a temporarilly fault in the climacell API response. I can not fix it quickly or do a workaround, and due to good weather the mountains are calling on the weekend
    BR
