will rain come back I miss it so I don't we don't know, it might not for 1.0 it might come later after 1.0 but, based on like the time we have left and the fact that we have to completely reimplement rain because the reason why rain came to be inide of factory was because- I think the way it came to be was, we re another Studio who's also working on real engine had an implementation of rain that we could like essent essentially just steal from them and just implemented in our game because it was like pretty not Bare Bones but it worked with our system and then we just like needed to tweak a few things here and there to make it work, and in when we upgraded to under 5 that system like doesn't work at all like it's not made for, I don't remember exactly what it was that broke it but there was something in some change in onreal engine 5 that just made it not work so if we're going to have rain again we need to completely from scratch implement the system and that's not something that, is super high priority it's it's really nice, and if we have time to do it for 1.0 I think we will try but I don't think it will happen honestly unfortunately but maybe later I miss rain though I want rain in real life at this point it's way too hot outside no it's fine are you able to say which studio the rain came from I actually have no idea I just know that we got it from somewhere it might have been from I know we've gotten a bunch of code from the Goat Sim team but I don't think this was the case here
