Change weather seems to be on the dev's to-do list. See here (in the Feature Requests forum): https://steamcommunity.com/app/794860/discussions/1/2143092623641059367/

Just for the record it’s 1440 minutes in a day!

Ok that's a way to do it, but my idea was to have an interface to set it up.
Somewhere, I can set the time at 08:00 am for example to avoid to wait during the night for example

Or maybe once you dock or lay anchor you can choose to sleep until daybreak? That would be cool.

And sadly, because of the time issue, it's always dark when I have time to sail.

Hi Thomas. Thats why we have the +12 hours mode. See Settings/Live Sailing.

Also if you turn off multiplayer you can advance time by making the day very short like 3 minutes. Once you get to daylight or conditions you enjoy, simply set the minutes back to 1440 or whatever you want.

You can also set time of day as well as wind and waves in Sandbox. So there are quite a few options!

Hi - sorry if I missed this elsewhere - is is possible now to set specific weather in addition to wind and waves?

I don't own the software yet, but I looked there, and it only says wind and waves. Can any other weather settings be adjusted, e.g. clouds and rain?

It would be nice but its a visual thing. Unless I’m mistaken rain won’t affect your boat handling much. Of course it can make things uncomfortable in real life of course!

Cloudscapes are great and reflect the wind,weather and time of day.
