Title: Variation in Sky color?
Post by: Knite on December 14, 2009, 10:56:43 AM: Hello,

As a wish for the wishlist, is it possible to get more varying sky colors just to "mix it up" / keep things feeling fresh? A bright blue sky is nice and all, but what about an occasional overcast day or dark orange sunset like below? I'm not talking about leaving it one way for an entire week, but perhaps as an option to fade in/out of on occasion? Such as the day to evening cycle is now... do early morning as cloudy, mid day bright blue, evening orange or something? Otherwise you're talking a large coding project for "changing skies" but even that could be thought of for long term. Agree/disagree?

(Shamelessly stolen from Brooke's Red Storm AAR Pictorial for an example. Sorry for not asking first Brooke, please let me know if I should remove from post.)
