1.1.0e01: Weather (experimental)Hey Drifters!Yup! Weather is here!It's something we've wanted to implement for a long time, but it didn't quite make it to 1.0. Now that we’re exploring ways to let you customize your playstyle, it felt like the right moment to bring it in.WeatherWe'll be testing weather in various forms throughout its time on Experimental. Currently we've added precipitation, temperature and wind speed. With the former two affecting fields, crops and drifter needs. We're also starting to introduce the ability to customize your game setup. This will eventually include difficulty presets and the ability to create a custom setup. For now, we're testing the active setting: Consumption Rate. This means that food will have calories, and drifters will consume 1.000 calories per day. This rate is, ofcourse, affected by the weather :)EDIT 30/06/2026 - 1.1.0e03We've reworked weath…
