If I remember right, the weather informations we catch even tells us, which
type of clouds should be present. (Cumulus, Stratus, Cirrocumulus,
Nimbostratus, Cumulonimbus etc...) Am I right? I think, there is something like
that in Environment/fgclouds.cxx
So we should create the specific cloudtypes so that we can replace the old
2d-layers and having a much more realistic weather!
As an example: X-Plane only has Cb's and Stratus- other cloudtypes aren't
really present- but the different cloudtypes are important sign for wetaher
changing etc and so it important for the pilots-> FGFS gets more realistic!
Juts my 2 cents at this early morning
Cheers
