Is there any way to get the Ambient Visibility, Humidity & Dew Point, from the sim in say, at least the plane position, without getting data from any thing that is actually Injecting the weather, ie Active Sky.
I find it hard to believe that after 4 years of MSFS 2020, and all the years of previous MS Flight simulators, that these VERY BASIC weather parameter has never been exposed as their values from within the Sim.
Ambient t this, Ambient that, but non of the 3 Ambient weather parameters noted above.
Maybe (Hopefully) I missed them as being added in the 2024 SDK ??
With DP & Temperature, one can “Derive” the Humidity.
But the missing “actual” Ambient Visibility (as opposed to some obscure “Particle” value) is an amazingly important parameter not to have access to,
Of course, sitting at an airport, receiving the ATIS, one would Hope that that . currently missing, ambient Visibility, would at least be close to what is the Atis !!
The other Parameter that seems very crude and dated, is the Bool PLANE IN CLOUD. Never actually monitored that one when flying in/out/through cloud, but being a Bool, it would seem to be somewhat “over simplified” for a modern Flight Simulator ?
