Restore acid rain?

[Firestorm01X2]

Acid rains seems still supported and can be enabled in regional_map_settings,json.
Over history acid rains were heavily nerfed already and should not pose substantional problems. And the same time they may add variety to weather condition with a little work of enabling it via json config.

Should we go for it?

If they don't have the old weird problem of murdering every monster outdoors then it should be fine.

I guess it should not

That fixes it melting items, and the player doesn't take direct damage it seems. What happens to monsters caught out in it?

Crow passed the test. 3 min - no health damage

Seems like that does fix most of the issues that warranted acid rain getting the boot, then.

If we ever get z-level trees (or just fake it by assuming any tile next to an adult tree has at least a basic level of canopy cover to reduce exosure) plus monsters smart enough to take shelter, then having it debuff or harm monsters again would be interesting.

Acid rain would be great to have back, but it should come with some kind of warning "The clouds are getting an ominous green look", ect

Sounds like a cool idea. Although, having a toggle for it would be even better in my opinion. I don't have an issue with acid rain being the default. Assuming the occurance rate isn't too high. Not sure how you add a toggle to the options menu though?
