The latest version has removed the option in the configuration to allow a user to enter a separate ICAO code, which makes it difficult for those users wanting to use an unlisted weather station.

Hi,

I removed that option because I wanted to make sure that the ICAO code is valid, i.e. from the supplied list. The list currently includes well over 3,800 ICAO stations. Are there any other weather stations which are not listed? If so, could you please submit them so I can include them as well?

Regards,
Tobias

As the calculation of the daytime and nighttime images rely on the additional information provided in the ICAO list, I don't think that re-adding the textfield for the ICAO code would be wise.

However, if there are really missing ICAO codes, I'll be happy to add them to the list.

Version 5.x-2.0 has just been released, which adds the ICAO textfield again. If you find that your specific ICAO code is not supported by the weather module, feel free to open another issue and I'll see what I can do.

Tobias
