dram 14 Posted July 24, 2013 Hello,Will it be possible to view the sun setting and the stars coming also will there be weather events ie dust storms and fog and martian clouds Many thanks Stu Yes weather is simulated. At this point sandstorms are not fully implemented, but will be added through the early access plan. As mentioned elsewhere, time on Mars corresponds to reality, we calculate it from the current UTC time, thus, if a location on Mars in reality is at night, then it will be at night in the game as well. You can of course choose to use "Game Time", which instead simulates UTC progressively, and you can skip hours ahead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
illectro 10 Posted July 30, 2013 What about meteors - Mars is nearer the main asteroid belt and gets a lot more meteors at night as a consequence. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fair point, it would not be too difficult to implement as well. Adding to the weather task. Edited July 31, 2013 by Dram Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
