In update 6, there was a new added option when you started a new game called "Weather". This option added temperature, meaning you have to pay attention to rain, snow, heatwaves, and more temperature-related events.
It consists of 5 weather types:
- Clear (no special effects)
- Overcast (no special effects)
- Rain (decreases temperature and prisoners will increase clothing need faster outside)
- Torrential rain (rare event, same as rain but with more intense effects)
- Snow and frost (sightly decreases temperature)
- Heatwave (rare event, sightly increases temperature)
Along with the addition of weather, there are now seasons (these events happen randomly). Weather was added in Update 6.
