Are you using Developer Mode or made changes in it?
Yes, I used developer mode and the weather debug tool to test this issue.
Have you disabled/removed all your mods and addons? If the issue still occurs with no mods and add-ons, please continue to report your issue. If not, please move this post to the Community Support section.
Yes.
Brief description of the issue:
Cloud layer densities are lower bounded by the highest density layer. For instance, if we have a “visibility” layer from 0 to 2000 feet AGL with density 0.1, but the second layer at 12000 feet to 15000 feet with a few clouds has a density 4.0, then the first layer density also goes up beyond 0.1. It is not possible to individually control the layer densities.

Provide time & date of the observed Weather issue
I used custom weather to reproduce this bug.
Detailed steps to reproduce the issue encountered:
Disable live weather. Create multiple cloud layers. For ease of testing, create a “haze layer” at the surface from 0 to 2000 ft AGL with 100% coverage, 0% density and 0% scatter. Reduce the densities of all three layers to 0 initially. Next, take the second layer and have an arbitrary cloud cover level. Even 0% cloud cover works on the upper layers. Increasing the density parameter on the upper layers directly affects the density of the haze layer that you define initially.
PC specs and/or peripheral set up if relevant:
Not relevant.
Build Version # when you first started experiencing this issue:
Probably right from the start, but I tested this on 1.33.8.0.
