WeatherManager

WeatherManager provides functionality to add weather and time of day effects to Unity projects via WeatherAPI data.

Demo

Accesses location via IPV4 and checkip.dyndns.org, and uses WeatherAPI to get your time of day and rough location.

This can be overriden with a manual 'City' string entry for more accurate results, as IPV4 will usually return the ISP's location.

IPV6 will give a more accurate location, but no free services to get this data exist that I know of.

Instructions

All files are in Assets/WeatherEffects. A demo scene is provided in Assets/WeatherEffects/Scenes/Weather.

Get your own WeatherAPI key from https://www.weatherapi.com/ and add it to the designated inspector field in the WeatherApiManager component on the WeatherManager GameObject.

Enter play mode to get your current weather and time of day data.

The WeatherFXManager component on the WeatherManager GameObject contains dropdowns to alter time of day and active weather effects.

The LocationServicesManager component on the WeatherManager GameObject allows you to input a city name and update location and weather data manually.

Weather Manager Components

There is a custom ScriptableObject class and entry, TimeOfDayFx, that allows you to define timespans and custom skyboxes for each time of day.

TimeOfDayFX ScriptableObject

Compatibility

Supports Unity 2021.3.0f1 and above.

Hasn't been tested on all platforms that Unity supports, but it probably works on most.

Mobile builds may be able to leverage device-level location services as a workaround for IPV6 support, but this has not been tested. Some intial work on this in LocationServicesManager.cs
