# 🌩️ WeatherPhysics v0.0.3 — Cloud Evolution & Severe Weather Update

Version 0.0.3 is a major leap forward for WeatherPhysics: storms now form, evolve, and dissipate dynamically, rather than simply acting as a global weather effect.

☁️ Volumetric Clouds & Cloud Lifecycle

• 📐 Volumetric Cloud System: Clouds now have realistic volume, varied shapes, and large dynamic structures.
• 🌱 Growth Stages: Clouds independently evolve over time—some grow, others weaken and fade away.
• ⛈️ Cumulonimbus Formation: Select clouds can now mature into full-scale convective storm clouds.
• ⛈️ Cumulonimbus Variants: Storm clouds can have different shapes, sizes, and heights. Some have large anvils, while others are more compact. Each storm can develop differently.

🌧️ Visuals, Rain Curtains & Hail

• 🌧️ Localized Rain Curtains: Rain now renders directly beneath specific clouds, matching their exact shape and size.
• 🧊 Cloud-Generated Hail: Hail originates inside Cumulonimbus clouds, falling with physics, bounce mechanics, and surface interactions.
• 🔊 Impact Sounds: Added sound effects for hailstones hitting surfaces and targets.

⚡ Independent Electrical Activity

• ⚡ In-Cloud Lightning: Dynamic lightning bolts generated inside storm clouds.
• 🔊 Dynamic Thunder: Thunder sound effects tied directly to localized electrical activity.

🌦️ Weather System Rework

• 🧠 Autonomous Storms: Storm generation now relies entirely on the custom cloud evolution system.
• 🚫 Vanilla Overhaul: Vanilla weather commands have been disabled as WeatherPhysics gains independence from the base game's weather engine.
• 🗑️ Deprecated Commands: Removed the temporary /weatherphysics severethunder command.

💡 Note: WeatherPhysics is in active development. Bug reports and community feedback are greatly appreciated!
