Line 20:
If the Sim used the Weathernaught 57X to change the weather, the antenna will remain open until the created weather has run its course, unless someone turns it off before then. It should be noted that the machine can not only create precipitation, but banish it, creating a clear sky. If this is done, the antenna will remain open, and the clear sky will be maintained until it is turned off. Using the Weathernaught 57X to change seasons will not turn off the clear sky. The current weather condition cannot be selected, so the "Clear Sky" option can only be chosen if there is some sort of precipitation. However, once that option is selected, it will be carried out even if the precipitation clears before the Sim activates the Weathernaught 57X.
{{Info|Note|While the Weathernaught 57X is enforcing clear sky, the "Watch Clouds" and "Stargaze" options may not appear when clicking on terrain.}}▼
The Weathernaught 57X cannot control the outdoor [[temperature]]. Changing the season may not immediately affect the outdoor temperature, even if it is outside of the new season's temperature range. For example, if the season is changed to Summer on a cold Winter day, the outdoor temperature may remain cold until the next day.
If ''[[The Sims 2: FreeTime]]'' is installed, using the Weathernaught 57X builds [[enthusiasm]] for the [[Science (hobby)|Science]] hobby.

===Trivia===
Line 52:
The Cloud-inator is used by selecting it, choosing to either shoot a rain or snow cloud, and then deciding which available Sim to shoot the cloud at. The Sim with the Cloud-inator at hand will walk to the other Sim, aim the Cloud-inator at them and shoot a small cloud of smoke at them. The attacked Sim will panic and run around the lot for a few Sim minutes, and then the cloud of smoke will disappear.
