Classic Clouds

Hi,

I was trying to disable the classic clouds (the ones at about 150m level) via World/Environment Settings/Advanced Sky Editor/Clouds/Draw Classic Clouds. Unchecking that checkbox doesn't seem to have any effect.

I can disable *all* clouds (including WindLight clouds) via Advanced/Rendering/Types/Clouds. But I only want to get rid of the classic clouds.

Changing the "Draw Classic Clouds" checkbox does change the debug-setting "SkyUseClassicClouds", but as I said it doesn't seem to have any effect. The classic clouds remain there unless I disable all clouds via the Advanced menu.

Is this a bug? Or just some undocumented "feature"? This is with v1.26.4.11, but I also noticed it a few weeks ago with an older v1.26.4.x.

When disabled, this setting only takes effect after you move to another region. This is because the clouds are viewer objects and are not deleted once created unless they are discarded after a region change. The clouds will however stop updating as soon as the SkyUseClassicClouds setting is set to FALSE.
