WeatherSync
Server-side mod to sync peoples' weather to the real world!
About this Mod
Weather Sync
Syncs your weather with the real world!
How it works
It queries the OpenMeteo API to find out the weather at different locations :)
You can either provide a city name, latitude and longitude or let the mod geolocate you using your IP address.
Configuration
This mod provides a bunch of in-game commands:
/weathersync enable: Enables the mod for you/weathersync disable: Disables the mod for you/weathersync location set auto: Geolocates your IP and sets the location the mod queries to your city's coordinates/weathersync location set city <name>: Sets the location the mod queries to the city you provide (default: Berlin)/weathersync location set custom <latitude> <longitude>: Sets the location the mod queries to the latitude and longitude you provide/weathersync location get: Sends you the location the mod queries/weathersync sync: Forces the game to send you your stored weather/weathersync timer get: Sends you the time left in minutes until the next global weather sync is performed
You can change the API base URL using the weathersync.api-backend Java system property. The default value is https://api.open-meteo.com/v1/dwd-icon.
Please open an issue if the weather doesn't properly sync and you don't get the weather described in the message to you

WeatherSync server crashes on startup – what to do?
Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.20.4). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.
Is WeatherSync compatible with fabric?
WeatherSync officially supports fabric for Minecraft 1.20.4. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.
Server lagging with WeatherSync – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if WeatherSync consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
