This extension HUD should allow even most beginner users to customise their rain from the lightest softest spring drizzle to a heavy downpour with ease, and be much more flexible for all windlight types.

••••Shapes••••
• Beta shape for the 2019 new model premium Linden Homes that should be out by April (5 LI)
• Skinny Long Shape (1LI) that'll help fill in those thinner gaps.

Both of them are built to be 25m tall which is taller than the 15m of the base pack, so please keep that in mind. These are fringe-use shapes that are not being factored into the price of the item, but are simply bonuses. More shapes may be added later if the need is seen.

••••Sounds••••
All sound will be emitted from the center of the ground prim mass, which means on particularly large or long shapes, this sound may not extend all the way to the edges due to SL limitation.

To circumvent this limitation, we are including 1 all-purpose rock which you can place to also emit more sound.

If you do not like the rock, you can make it transparent, or take the inside script and place it in any object you prefer.

••••Caveats••••
Rain does not, and will not be changed to, store states - this means if you turn it OFF/Invisible and return to ON/Default, it will reset as if you had freshly rezzed it. In particular, sound, opacity, glow, anim speed, anim textures will all be reset to default values.

The reason for this decision is very simple: lag. You'd be living with significantly more memory lag if this was implemented 24/7, versus the few seconds it takes via HUD to make these changes again.

This is also the same reason timers are not built in to this. Simplest Rain is meant to be a high performance, lightweight flexible rain system, not a lag-heavy burden with all the bells and whistles.

Please also take a moment to read the originally included notecard for base pack.
In particular, be VERY careful about what you link these to while they are scripted.

Thanks for purchasing our Simplest Rain & Extension Add-on! I worked very hard to make something user friendly, low lag, and visually appealing & hope you will appreciate it.
