Constructive explanation of issues

[klem]

See previous post for my settings etc.

I also posted this on a regular thread but I think it belongs here:

I have created a dogfight mission with a Weather Object set as overcast at 300m, Hurricanes at Hawkinge, static heinkels and stukas across the channel at Saint-Inglevert and a few 109s patrolling their area. I have set the density etc properties of the weather as low as they will go (the sliders).

Problem: When friends join me (I'm running the server on my playing PC) they do not get the weather - just clear skies - while I am flying in the overcast.

Any ideas why? Is this part of 'the weather is porked' or could it be something to do with settings?

If it means anything, while I see the blue ground targets on my map right from the start, my friends don't until they get near the French coast and while I can see the ground targets dots from miles away - even through cloud (!) - my friends don't until they are close.
