    Hello all,

    We spoke with the graphics team about some of the ideas you brought up.
    While a dripping water type effect sounds cool, its pretty difficult to implement currently. The team is however planning future content such as water that pools up into puddles as well as foot prints that show up specifically when you get your feet wet.

    Soon you can play even more in the rain!

    There is nothing difficult about putting a particle effect on a character... It is done all the time in a lot of games, perhaps you should speak with your graphics team because I can create and implement one in a very short time period...

    It could be constraints within the game engine, or constraints with how the scripting would work, a particle effect is just that, but you have to have it scripted, and that could cause issues with the way they have things coded. There's more to it than just BOOM added particle effects....

    Could you also ask them to give the new water effect to the Unicorn. It's mane and tail should be shiny like my hair but it isn't.

    Hey there, maybe a subtle rain effect on the camera, that can be turned
    off would be amazing. I would also highly suggest more of these effects
    and "odd" weathers, such as gloom and hopelessness. They really add to
    the world.
