Set up Dark Clouds for use - do this before the main loop, but after calling DC SET CLOUDY. That way the clouds will start with whatever level of coverage you set. Somewhere after DC INIT, you should call TEXTURE BACKDROP to put the sky image in your scene.
DC INIT Image Index, Steps per Hour
int: Image Index
Which texture will be used for the background. Use this number to call TEXTURE BACKDROP after DC INIT.
int: Steps per Day
How many keyframe steps in an hour - important! Too many steps per hour will slow down your game, not enough will make the weather less dynamic. You want about one step every 2 minutes of real time - so if a minute of real time is an hour of game time, try about 12 steps per day. Previous versions of Dark Clouds used steps per day - the maximum number of steps per hour is 10.
This command does not return a value.
