Sure, here is an example of it resetting in play mode and not showing up until you change a setting again:

Thank you.
According to the devs:

When entering play mode, the weather and other properites are then driven by a weather manager. So everything you will change in some material and is also simulated by the weather manger will get overridden. You need to use the Weather manager for such case.

Hello Geez,
thanks for the answer.

Im not sure how or where the weather manager is overriding e.g the star material. Is there another star material that is being used to override mine?
And how does the weather affect e.g the star size?
The materials are set in the GenericWorldEntity:
