            // Trick 1: Each x/z coordinate gets a "snow accum" threshold by using a locational random (murmurhash3). Once that threshold is reached, spawn snow. If its doubled, spawn 2nd layer of snow. => Patchy "fade in" of snow \o/
            // Trick 2: We store a region wide snow accum value for the ground level and the map ceiling level. We can now interpolate between those values for each Y-Coordinate \o/
            // Trick 3: We loop through each x/z block in a separate thread, then hand over "place snow" tasks to the main thread
            // Trick 4: Lets pre-gen 50 random shuffles for every x/z coordinate of a chunk. Loop through the region chunks, check which one is loaded and select one random shuffle from the list, then iterate over every x/z coord

            // Trick 5: Snowed over blocks:
            // - New VSMC util: "Automatically Try to add a snow cover to all horizontal faces"
            // - New Block property: SnowCoverableShape.
            // - Block.OnJsonTesselation adds snow adds cover shape to the sourceMesh!!


            // Trick 6: Turn Cloud Patterns into a "dumb slave system". They are visual information only, so lets make them follow internal mechanisms.
            // - Create a precipitation perlin noise generator. If the precipitation value goes above or below a certain value, we force the cloud pattern system to adapt to a fitting pattern
            // => We gain easy to probe, deterministic precipitation values!!
            // => We gain the ability to do unloaded chunk snow accumulation and unloaded chunk farmland rain-wetness accum

            // Trick 6 v2.0:
            // Rain clouds are simply overlaid onto the normal clouds.


            // Questions:
            // - Q1: When should it hail now?
            // - Q2: How is particle size determined?
            // - Q3: When should there be thunder?
            // - Q4: How to control the precipitation by command?

            // A1/A3: What if we read the slope of precipitation change. If there is a drastic increase of rain fall launch a
            // a. wind + thunder event
            // b. thunder event
            // c. rarely a hail event
            // d. extra rarely thunder + hail event

            // A2: Particle size is determiend by precipitation intensity


            // Trick 7 v2.0
            // - Hail and Thunder are also triggered by a perlin noise generator. That way I don't need to care about event range.

            // A4: /weather setprecip [auto or 0..1]

            // - Q5: How do we overlay rain clouds onto the normal clouds?
            //         Q5a: Will they be hardcoded? Or configurable?
            //         Q5b: How does the overlay work? Lerp?
            //         Q5c: Rain cloud intensity should relate to precip level.
            //         How? Lerp from zero to max rain clouds? Multiple cloud configs and lerp between them?

            // - A5a: Configurable
            //   A5b: Lerp.
            //   A5c: Single max rain cloud config seems sufficient


            // TODO:
            // 1. Rain cloud overlay
            // 2. Snow accum
            // 3. Hail, Thunder perlin noise
            // 4. Done?


            // Idea 8:
            // - F**K the region based weather sim.
            // - Generate clouds patterns like you generate terrain from landforms
            // - Which is grid based indices, neatly abstracted with LerpedIndex2DMap and nicely shaped with domain warping
            // - Give it enough padding to ensure domain warping does not go out of bounds
            // - Every 2-3 minutes regenerate this map in a seperate thread, cloud renderer lerps between old and new map.
            // - Since the basic indices input is grid based, we can cycle those individually through time



            // for a future version
            // Hm. Maybe one noise generator for cloud coverage?
            // => Gain the ability to affect local temperature based on cloud coverage

            // Hm. Or maybe one noise generator for each cloud pattern?
            // => Gain the abillity for small scale and very large scale cloud patterns

            // Maybe even completely ditch per-region simulation?
            // => Gain the ability for migrating weather patterns

            // but then what will determine the cloud pattern?

            // Region-less Concept:
            // Take an LCGRandom. Use xpos and zpos+((int)totalDays) / 5 for coords
            // Iterate over every player
            //  - iterate over a 20x20 chunk area around it (or max view dist + 5 chunks)
            //    - domain warp x/z coords. use those coords to init position seed on lcgrand. get random value
            //    - store in an LerpedWeightedIndex2DMap
            // Iterate over every cloud tile
            //  - read cloud pattern data from the map



            // Snow accum needs to take the existing world information into account, i.e. current snow level
            // We should probably
            // - Store snow accumulation as a float value in mapchunkdata as Dictionary<BlockPos, float>
            // - Every 3 seconds or so, "commit" that snow accum into actual snow layer blocks, i.e. if accum >= 1 then add one snow layer and do accum-=1
