Title: Hail weather
Post by: mumblemumble on April 02, 2016, 04:16:52 PM
Falling of large chunks of ice, very quick and fast to end weather, which can potentially injure / incap outside colonists, damage items outside badly, and damage walls / roofs / outside buildings.

Lasting around an hour ingame, maybe 2 to keep it balanced, it being a very swift, very dangerous weather event.

I'd say yes, but considering how deadly cold/ice sheet biomes already are it's unnecessary  ::)

To be honest, Does hail even hit much in the arctic much? I was thinking more boreal / temperate forest weather than anything else. And if it was only for an hour, I think it could be survived by most people, perhaps being bruised / battered, but not quite fatal.
