Disableing Natural Disasters in the Creative menu

[AngusBiffen]

Would it not be good if you could disable the natural disasters in-game instead of before you start the game.

Unfortunately with how Stormworks creates worlds I do not think that is possible. Seeing as how natural disasters are attached to the module it is only ever going to be looked at on world creation. After the world is created those modules are locked in, that is also why map mods cannot be added to an existing save (I feel like I may have heard about altering your save somehow for map mods but I can't remember).

You cannot completely disable them but you can span them out by 1 disaster per hour. When you are creating a game, before you press the check after your desired settings are set, click "Enabled Addons" there you can scroll until you see "Default Natural Disasters", click the gear next to it. You can take the bar all the way up, so you will only have 1 disaster per hour, unless you spawn one from custom menu, you will also have the option to disable ALL sirens every time there is a disaster, I like to do this because it makes it more fun when your not expecting it, and its less annoying lol. But i hope they add a option to completely disable them sometime, although i dont think it will happen.

You can disable them, when you click the addons menu, scroll to natural disasters, there is a green switch next to it. Click to switch to turn it grey and they will be disabled. Hope this helps.
