I know this was brought up before (see here), but I feel like it's worth bringing it up again. I believe the arguments against adding this as a town perk were solid, as it wouldn't benefit certain towns as much as any town living in an area with problems of weather. Additionally, not every aspect of weather can be disabled, so it further restricts "toggling weather" to essentially just disabling visuals and snow-fall blocks. However, even this tiny portion of weather can play a very large part in construction for certain towns, to the point where it becomes restrictive. So, I propose that a command should be added to restrict the visuals of weather as well as the snow-fall blocks in the same way people toggle mob spawning, except not as a town perk, rather an immediately toggle-able option from the creation of the town. This way, no town perk has to be replaced for a perk that might not necessarily benefit all towns equally as much as the others. Snow is a huge problem for towns that seek to build in tundra or the mountains, giving them a natural disadvantage when it comes to building in comparison to other towns. Additionally, although optifine does provide the option to visually disable weather, it might help players without optifine with potential lag problems due to weather. By keeping this as a non-town-perk command, you level the opportunity for building across all towns without removing any benefits for other towns or providing a perk that benefits a select few towns.
