On-Demand Thunderstorm

So what could I add to my custom menu to have it create an "on-demand" thunderstorm?

I guess we could recreate the CloudCheck and force a storm that way but is there another way?

Place this line above setup():

Code: Select all

boolean ForceCloud=false;
Use one of the menu entries like this:

Code: Select all

void MenuEntry1()
{
ForceCloud=true;
ReefAngel.DisplayedMenu=RETURN_MAIN_MODE;
}
Add this to the CheckCloud() function:

Code: Select all

if (ForceCloud)
{
ForceCloud=false;
cloudchance=1;
cloudduration=10;
lightningchance=1;
cloudstart=NumMins(hour(),minute())+1;
}
just above these lines:

Code: Select all

if (cloudchance)
{
//is it time for cloud yet?
