Wind tags describe the speed and variation of wind in a BSP cluster as a part of its assigned weather palette. Wind affects local point_physics and causes the movement of flags, weather, particle_systems, and more.

  • Unit: world units

Upper and lower bounds for wind speed. Technically, this is not a true "velocity" because it is not a vector; wind direction is set in the BSP's weather palettes.
