The host's console sky is the party's
- Weather: when the host uses
weather <kind>during a run, every player gets it, for the rest of that run, in the forest and the ruins. Players who join mid-run get it too. A new run rolls its own weather again. - Lightning: the host's
weather strikeflashes for everyone. - Time of day: the host's
timecommand (an hour,cycle,stoporreset) applies to the whole party, in the Sanctuary and on runs, and late joiners get it. A running clock is re-sent every 10 s so the machines stay together. A time set before hosting carries over to the party. - Clients: using either command still changes only their own screen, and the console says so. The host's next change replaces it.
- Network protocol: now 15, so everyone needs v0.49.1.
- Net test: now checks that the client and the late joiner both get the host's snow and 14:30.
