Why do I want it?

If you need to change biomes, grow new forest, or going to allow your players to do it - you must install WeatherMan :) If you need to "curse" any player with unstoppable rain you can find this plugin useful too.

How Do I Install It?

Just copy it in your Plugins folder.

How to use it?

1. Install
2. Use command /wm set biome:<biome> radius:<radius> to change biome around you
3. Use command /wm set biome:<biome> to change biome at area selected using WorldEdit
4. Use command /wm set biome:<biome> region:<region name> to change biome at WorldGuard region defined by name
5. Use command /wm replace biome:<biome> fill:true to change biome in your location to new one
6. Use command /wm give [biome | woodcutter | depopulator | forester] to obtain all or specified wand.
7. Use command /wm wand to enable wand mode (define biome and radius with commands /wm wand biome:<biome> radius:<radius> tree:<tree type> Right-click with magic wand and you'll shoot the snowball that will change the biome around the hit-point, remove or grow trees.
8. Create sign with [biome] in second line, radius value in third, and biome names in first and forth lines. You can set word "replace" in third line if you need to replace the full biome. Now you can use redstone power to toggle between two biomes.

Update checker and bStats

WeatherMan includes two features that use your server internet connection. First one is bStats, that used to collect information about the plugin (versions of plugin, of Java.. etc.) and second is update checker, checks new releases of plugin after WeatherMan startup and every half hour. This feature is using API provided by dev.bukkit.org. If you don't like this features you can easy disable it. To disable update checker you need to set parameter "version-check" to "false" in config.yml. Obtain more information about bStats and learn how to switch off it, you can read here.
