Enable – This checkbox enables the Cloud system for the Sky.

Amount – This value is the amount of the main clouds (stratus, cumulus, cumulonimbus). A value equal to 0% means there are no such clouds in the sky, while a value equal to 100% means the sky is full of these clouds.

Variety – This value randomly changes the appearance of the main clouds.

Cirrus amount – This value sets the amount of cirrus clouds (clouds high in the sky). A value equal to 0% means that no cirrus clouds are visible, while a value equal to 100% means the maximum amount of cirrus clouds in the sky.

Phase – This value determines minor perturbation of the clouds to simulate their change in time.

Seed - Generates new clouds when the value is changed.

Density scale - Controls the density appearance of the main clouds. Value A value of 1 means no additional scaling, ; increasing the value leads to denser clouds , while decreasing the value results in lower-density clouds.

Altitude [m] – This value controls the altitude (measured from the ground) at which the main cloud starts

Altitude [m] – This value controls the altitude (measured from the ground) at which the main cloud starts.  Measured in meters.

Height [m] – This value controls the height (thickness) of the main clouds. Increasing this value leads to heavier clouds, while decreasing it results in lighter (more transparent). Measured in meters.

Offset X [m] – This value offsets clouds on the X-axis.  Measured in meters.

Offset Z Height [m] – This value offsets clouds on the Z-axis. Measured in meters.

Contrails

Enabled – This enables the use of contrails for the sky.

Plane count – Controls how many planes are simulated to create contrails.

Time – Controls the simulation of time - increasing time moves planes along their travel direction. Increasing this property by larger values can be used as a random seeding of the planes positions.

Strength – Determines how many contrails are visible in the sky.

Distortion – Determines how much contrails are distorted. A value of 0% gives contrail lines without any distortions, while a value of 100% results in a maximum amount of distortion.

Offset X [m] – This value offsets contrails on the X-axis. Measured in meters.

Offset Z [m] – This value offsets contrails on the Z-axis. Measured in meters.
