I know the current code implements the written rules but it seems many players agree that:

1) Wind changes too often.
2) The direction is too random.


Proposed:

1) Only check for a wind change once every 4 turns.

2) Only allow the wind to change direction by 1 compass point in either direction.
(If it's heading N, then it can only change to NE or NW. If it's heading N it's not allowed to completely reverse direction and change to S or SE or SW on that turn.)
Only six compass points on a hex map. I think you get the idea.

Thoughts for or against?
Is this hard to code?

I think it will make the game much more enjoyable.
