Larger ocean and sea waves with slower wind speeds

Just bumping this on the list again…

It would be great if Asobo could ingest a feed of maritime/nautical weather reports and reflect the sea state correctly. Images work best sometimes, so here’s an example from a pleasure flight at the weekend.

Sim’s sea state with Live Weather enabled

The way it was supposed to look


Manually Corrected based on the National Weather Service Marine Forecast from the US NOAA (noaa.gov) - winds at 20-30 knots. For this I added a 20kts (10m/s) ground wind with 10, 30kts (15m/s) gusts a minute.

And another - this time Miami with Live Weather enabled


And the way it was supposed to look

It would really add to the immersion and realism :slight_smile: if you could add this.
