Planes can see through clouds again

Spawned my KABB into a 2.3 RB. Was full overcast and I spawned in complete cloud. Shortly after spawning I could hear a plane approaching, so I climbed out of the clouds and found he was directly on my tail.

This has happened in the past. There has been a recurring issue where planes in clouds create a sort of “fuzzy” look on some machines that makes them see you from across the entire map, allowing enemy aircraft to attack you even though they are completely invisible to you. Apparently it’s back again.

Clouds are client side, unfortunately

Well that completely explains that!

I did notice, on my next spawn, that the same “fuzzing” effect is also happening. The guy that shot me down was still up and I was able to find him easily when he was in the clouds (even in my perspective) because of this GFX issue.

Also clouds are kinda weirdly transparent at times.

You can clearly see enemy aircraft across this cloud.
