Real-time Weather

This mod provides a function to set the weather in any mission to the real-time weather of any chosen area. This mod also sets the time to the current user time and day to match the current weather and light level outside.
To use this mod in your mission (or using the console, run it mid-mission) type in:
[] spawn HAL_fnc_runWeatherMission;
Where the XXXX is an airport ID (ICAO) found on the AWC Website[www.aviationweather.gov].
Note: These are ALWAYS 4 alphanumeric characters

Options for running:
- Station ID
"XXXX" 4 alphanumerics representing station.
With v1.3 this can also be a list of Station IDs seperated by commas.
This can also be the keyword "map" to attempt to obtain weather based on the maps' lattitude and longitude.
- Use visibility distance (Disable on slower PCs for better preformance)
true/false
- Use local time
true/false
- Use reported wind
true/false
- Use reported snow
true/false

An example call to run the mod with a specific station ID would be:
hal_weatherStation = "KLWT";
[] spawn HAL_fnc_runWeatherMission;
If you wanted to run it without setting the time:
hal_weatherStation = "KLWT";
hal_enforceVis = true;
hal_enforceTime = false;
[] spawn HAL_fnc_runWeatherMission;
Run without setting view distance or time:
hal_weatherStation = "KLWT";
hal_enforceVis = false;
hal_enforceTime = false;
[] spawn HAL_fnc_runWeatherMission;

If you wish to turn off the loop during a mission, simply set the missionNamespace Variable "hal_useweather" to false, and the loop will stop.
missionNamespace setVariable ["hal_useweather",false];
publicVariable "hal_useweather";

Compatibility:

- This mod is made to be ACE3 compatable if it is also loaded.
- If ACE3 is not loaded, the mod continues as normal and will not have errors.
- Mod should not have any incompatable mods.

Requirements:

- You only need CBA to run this mod.
- A valid station ID for input.


Hope you can make use of it and enjoy!
