Will the weather effects also have influence on the game?
Does the ball bounce differently, or do the ball and/or players move slower under certain conditions?

The weather affect ball inertia and rebound, like in KO2

Great, I already hoped that it was more than a graphic effect.
Did you also add wind as a weather effect?

I loved the effect the wind had on the high balls in Kick Off.
Me and my cousin always tried to score directly from a corner kick :)

Yes, i have implemented wind as well....anyway wind intensity is not constant like in KO2 but the wind intensity blows randomly.
Graphically you can see the direction and intensity of the wind watching the shadows of the clouds on the pitch.

to be honest the lag factor is still a real problem for fast games
