This is a direct port of Shooting Stars from Isoku.

Now with Splashes of Storms the splashes of rain from Wonders of Weather are replaced by it.

But still we need Shooting Stars in our games. At least i do. So i made a direct port of this wonderfull mod from Isoku, Shooting Stars

Ofcourse i have full permission to do so.

Shooting stars aka fragments of Aetherius appear in various sizes and fall from various positions in the sky at night (8:30pm to 6:00am). The general direction they fall in will change on a monthly basis.

Meteor showers (shooting star frequency increased) are guaranteed to occur during certain nights of the year. The dates they occur on coincide with the actual meteor shower dates of Earth.

3rd of Morning Star

21st of Rain's Hand

5th of Second Seed

11th of Last Seed

20th of Frostfall

17th of Sun's Dusk

13th of Evening Star

Meteor storms (shooting star frequency greatly increased) have an extremely low chance of occurring each night.

You may see them 2-3 times per in-game year.
