Request Martain Weather

[XSSA]

I think it would be neat to have a modual for martian weather like glodal dust storms and dirt devils. Imagine trying to land during a dust storm. Could someone please make this!:speakcool:

:hmm: There are these two addons on the OrbitHangar:

[ame="http://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=2258"]Weather MFD[/ame]: Adds air pockets/blasts
[ame="http://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=2782"]Nebo Clouds[/ame]: Adds cloud objects (Orbiter 2006 only, I think).

They could be combined - somehow...

I was thinking to Artlav's Volcanos & Geysers, too...

A nice idea worth thinking over, but afraid the flight rule book will prohibit that. I'll look up coordinates of geysers on Mars, though (EDIT: it's Planum Australe, perhaps the next update of HEM-SAG sites will feature them - as suggested, it'll require Artlav's volcano.dll).

More threatening than a dust devil would be the Solar Proton Event.

EDIT #2: Tried south polar cap geysers, it works fine only in Ron Miller's paintings, in Orbiter it is hard to ensure good lighting at Planum Australe sites.
