Winter is toothless. I want to give it more oomph.

Once [Pr#17500](https://github.com/CleverRaven/Cataclysm-DDA/pull/17500) is merged you’ll be able to edit game temperatures. But for now it requires editing the source and compiling the game yourself

Have you seen The Shining?

It’s like that but instead imagine zombies and demons.

So? A nice hotel with zombies and demons. Perfect place to write my new roguelike.

Exactly what Maine is.

Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead is just a simulation of what it’s like to be in a Steven King novel.

For the record that’s set in the Colorado Rockies (based on Estes Park), but that’s beside the point.

Namely I’m happy to find out they’re finally adding the ability to modify the climate without digging around in core files. Looks like it’s time to start rebuilding the Jotun mod I lost when my last laptop went belly up!
