Update Weather Simulation

• update config map data
  • add temperature, humidity, precipitation, cloud cover measurements
• dynamically update weather forecast using map data
  • minimize vanilla system interference
• allow players to override dynamic system using CBA settings

• currently simulating overcast, rain and fog
• add lightning and rainbow simulation to rain handler

With the override system you are looking at the ACE weather functionality correct? It is critical to have that for ACE Ballistics.

DCG's weather simulation is compatible with ACE. If ACE is active, DCG will defer to ACE when calculating measurements like temperature and humidity and use those values to influence the weather forecast.

This means players should get the benefits of DCG's cloud, rain and fog simulation while maintaining ACE's ballistics and environmental measurements.
