Weather Control - Clouds

Layer ID:

1 = Cloud Layer 1

2 = Cloud Layer 2

3 = Cloud Layer 3

This parameter specifies the weather layer to which the data in this packet are applied. This parameter also determines the type of aerosol contained within the layer.

Values 0 through 9 are defined as the standard weather layer types. Values beyond this range are defined in the IG configuration.

Note: This parameter is ignored if Scope is set to Entity (2).

Cloud Type:

0 = None

1 = Altocumulus

2 = Altostratus

3 = Cirrocumulus

4 = Cirrostratus

5 = Cirrus

6 = Cumulonimbus

7 = Cumulus

8 = Nimbostratus

9 = Stratocumulus

10 = Stratus

11 - 15 = Other

This parameter specifies the type of clouds contained within the weather layer. If the value of Layer ID does not correspond to a cloud layer, Cloud Type should be set to None (0).

Scud Frequency

This parameter specifies the frequency of scud within the transition bands above and/or below a cloud or fog layer. A value of 0% produces no scud effect; 100% produces a solid effect.
