DO NOT use this in public servers or in missions. I am not responsible for what happens to your account if you save a super unobtainable high score to the leaderboards, and I do not want this mod to be shut down over it.
FEATURES:
Custom tornado appearance
Overhauled tornado debris
More realistic tornado wind radius (don't get too close!)
Less thunderstorm clutter (including fake distant supercells)
Storm Chasers is a great game. This mod aims to make it better by completely overhauling the way tornadoes look and affect the environment around them. Tornadoes will look and feel more realistic. For starters, tornadoes in the vanilla game have a very small wind-field that barely extends past the width of the funnel. You basically have to drive into the tornado to be picked up. With this mod, there will be tornado-strength winds much further from the condensation funnel, as there would be in real life. Next is the most obvious change, which is to the shapes of tornado "columns." Tornadoes in this game are coded very simply to be cone shaped. This is why even on rope tornadoes, you will see a big oil-funnel looking cone at the top where the tornado connects to the clouds above. I have modified the code to make cone tornadoes in general less likely, instead opting to mostly depict photogenic elephant trunk, stovepipe, and wedge tornadoes. I say mostly because hail and rain wrapping are a big factor in visibility and appearance, and often times a tornado will only emerge from the rain for a brief moment before quickly disappearing again.
