CloudSky
A sky that moves. Clouds drift and change shape over a soft gradient, under a sun you place, ready for any scene's Sky Image.
A CloudSky is an ImageContent that draws a panorama of sky, sun and clouds; pick it as a DataModel's Sky Image and give its sun the DataModel's angles. While Playing, its Time runs on, and the same Time always draws the same sky. Wind drifts the clouds, Evolution reshapes them, Cover and Density set how many and how thick, Scale their size. In Rendered a moving sky restarts the trace every frame; pause it or drive Time for stills.

| Name | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| CloudColor | Color3 | 1, 1, 1 | |
| Cover | number | 0.45 0 to 1 | Sets how many clouds there are. |
| Density | number | 0.6 0 to 1 | Sets how thick the clouds are. |
| Evolution | number | 0.02 0 to 100 | Changes the shapes of the clouds. |

| Scale | number | 1 0.05 to 100 | Sets the size of the clouds. |
| Seed | number | 1 | |
| Time | number | 0 0 to 1e+07 | Advances while Playing is on; the same Time always draws the same sky. |

Sky
| SkyGround | Color3 | 0.35, 0.34, 0.335 | One of its own sky gradient colours, in the same gradient as the built-in sky. |
| SkyHorizon | Color3 | 0.63, 0.73, 0.87 | One of its own sky gradient colours, in the same gradient as the built-in sky. |
| SkyTop | Color3 | 0.3, 0.49, 0.79 | One of its own sky gradient colours, in the same gradient as the built-in sky. |
| SunAzimuth | number | 115 -360 to 360 | With SunElevation, places its sun disc and glow; the defaults match a DataModel's, so set both to agree. |
| SunElevation | number | 38 -90 to 90 | With SunAzimuth, places its sun disc and glow; the defaults match a DataModel's, so set both to agree. |
