Thanks Grot13, I’m just glad it all seems to have worked out okay! Hopefully I’ll have the write up about the seasons done soonish. I was hoping others would be able to use the ideas in their projects as well, so that would be great if you’re able to have it in your game 
Ah, yes, bird sounds would be nice to have in there, especially as it starts to look more realistic. I forgot about adding those kinds of things to my list of things to add. It would be nice to have that for the videos too. I’ll probably be able to start adding those kinds of things soon. I thought I would try adding wind and wind sounds to the trees in the next few months as well.
I haven’t had any experience with multiplayer, but yeah, I’m sure it could be quite a challenge getting everything working right :), and best done from the beginning, like you said. Here was one link I had run across and saved that I didn’t know if it would help or not. Someone talks about Game Mode and Game State in the first reply: https://www.reddit.com/r/unrealengine/comments/39a36d/how_to_correctly_use_the_gamestate_for_a_single/
I had not seen your new post. Those puddles worked out very well! It ought to look quite nice when you have more of the environment done.
