# Atmosphere

Atmosphere : `Instance`

## Overview

The Atmosphere object utilizes particle density, fog, and color to create realistic atmospheric effects

## Properties

### AirColor

`Color3`

Adjusts the overall tint of the atmosphere.

#### Code Samples

```lua
local Lighting = game:GetService("Lighting")
local Atmosphere = Lighting:WaitForChild("Atmosphere")

Atmosphere.AirColor = Color3.fromRGB(255, 0, 0)
```

### CloudAmount

`number`

Adjusts the amount and density of clouds.

#### Code Samples

```lua
local Lighting = game:GetService("Lighting")
local Atmosphere = Lighting:WaitForChild("Atmosphere")

Atmosphere.CloudAmount = 0.5
```

### CloudSpeed

`number`

Sets the speed at which clouds move. Useful for simulating strong winds or slow drifting skies.

#### Code Samples

```lua
local Lighting = game:GetService("Lighting")
local Atmosphere = Lighting:WaitForChild("Atmosphere")

Atmosphere.CloudSpeed = 0.1
```

### CloudTexture

`string`

Specifies the cloud texture. Used to define the shape, texture, and density of the clouds.

#### Code Samples

```lua
local Lighting = game:GetService("Lighting")
local Atmosphere = Lighting:WaitForChild("Atmosphere")

Atmosphere.CloudTexture = "ovdrassetid://1234"
```

### Color

`Color3`

Sets the overall tint filter for the atmosphere.

#### Code Samples

### Density

`number`

Sets the density of particles in the atmosphere. Higher values result in stronger atmospheric effects.

#### Code Samples

### FogColor

`Color3`

Sets the color of the fog. Can be adjusted to match the mood or time of day.

#### Code Samples

```lua
local Lighting = game:GetService("Lighting")
local Atmosphere = Lighting:WaitForChild("Atmosphere")

Atmosphere.FogColor = Color3.fromRGB(255, 0, 0)
```

### FogDensity

`number`

Sets the density of the fog. Higher values result in heavier, more obscured visibility.

#### Code Samples

```lua
local Lighting = game:GetService("Lighting")
local Atmosphere = Lighting:WaitForChild("Atmosphere")

Atmosphere.FogDensity = 0.03
```

### FogFalloff

`number`

Adjusts how quickly the fog fades over distance. Lower values cause a gradual fade, while higher values make the fog dissipate more abruptly.

#### Code Samples

```lua
local Lighting = game:GetService("Lighting")
local Atmosphere = Lighting:WaitForChild("Atmosphere")

Atmosphere.FogFalloff = 0.32
```

### FogFalloffClear

`number`

Specifies the distance from the camera at which fog attenuation begins and clears.

#### Code Samples

### FogHorizon

`boolean`

When enabled, the skybox is excluded from the fog effect.

#### Code Samples

```lua
local Lighting = game:GetService("Lighting")
local Atmosphere = Lighting:WaitForChild("Atmosphere")

Atmosphere.FogHorizon = true
```

### FogStart

`number`

Specifies the distance from the camera at which the fog begins.

#### Code Samples

```lua
local Lighting = game:GetService("Lighting")
local Atmosphere = Lighting:WaitForChild("Atmosphere")

Atmosphere.FogStart = 50000
```

### GlareColor

`Color3`

Specifies the atmospheric scattering color of sunlight or moonlight.

#### Code Samples

```lua
local Lighting = game:GetService("Lighting")
local Atmosphere = Lighting:WaitForChild("Atmosphere")

Atmosphere.GlareColor = Color3.fromRGB(100, 0, 0)
```

### GlareFalloff

`number`

Controls the intensity of sunlight or moonlight scattering in the atmosphere.

#### Code Samples

```lua
local Lighting = game:GetService("Lighting")
local Atmosphere = Lighting:WaitForChild("Atmosphere")

Atmosphere.GlareFalloff = 0.02
```

### HazeColor

`Color3`

Specifies the color of light scattering caused by particles in the atmosphere.

#### Code Samples

```lua
local Lighting = game:GetService("Lighting")
local Atmosphere = Lighting:WaitForChild("Atmosphere")

Atmosphere.HazeColor = Color3.fromRGB(255, 0, 0)
```

### HazeSpread

`number`

Adjusts the intensity of light scattering caused by particles in the atmosphere.

#### Code Samples

```lua
local Lighting = game:GetService("Lighting")
local Atmosphere = Lighting:WaitForChild("Atmosphere")

Atmosphere.HazeSpread = 0.03
```

### StartDistance

`number`

Specifies the distance from the camera at which the atmosphere effect begins.
