Weather Guard

Realistic Farming - Weather Guard is the shared weather truth for the Realistic Farming mod ecosystem. It is the 6th core service, alongside StateLedger, NetworkSync, MasterHUD, SettingsHub, and Time Guard.

What it does

Six mods in the suite each read the sky privately and disagree with each other: the crop-stress forecast, the soil rain reads, the drilling advisory, the FarmTablet weather app, the hired-labor rain premium, and the NPC work factor. Weather Guard replaces those private guesses with one reading:

• The current sky in one call: rain scale, is-it-raining, cloud cover, temperature, humidity, and the weather category (a rain scalar cannot tell you "fog").

• The forward forecast, which FS25 really does expose. The base game fills about 9 days ahead and returns an honest nil past that edge.

• One weather-mode dial the whole suite shares, admin-gated and server-owned.

It centralizes the awkward parts too: the multi-field humidity probe that SeasonalCropStress carries today, the cloud-updater that lives on two different objects depending on who you ask, and the weather-type lookup that NPCFavor has been getting wrong since it was written.

The one law: TRUTH, never CONSEQUENCE

Weather Guard publishes the sky and never acts on it. It never writes a consumer's state and never applies an effect. Every consumer keeps its own leaching, its own rain premium, its own price move, its own crop stress. This is the exact mirror of Time Guard's money fence: Time Guard owns when, never how much; Weather Guard owns what the weather is, never what it does to you.
