Nice little wall cloud from Rex.  It's not really all that fantastic - it almost looks like someone made it by using the cloning brush in photoshop - has that blotchy fake look to it. Here's a real one for comparison:

I do remember this from a promo shot and one with an actual tornado but never seen any screenshots or videos from users of the software. Not entirely sure as to the situations in which they appear in sim as there's very little detail of how REX generates them or what data they use. 

Maybe it would be easiest to have a certain random element to tornado generation. You wouldn't want them appearing anywhere CB's are reported though. It also depends whether we are talking purely about supercell tornadoes too! 

Yeah, I don't really know how they'd reliably generate real-world tornadoes in-sim without teaching the software how to interpret radar. And if they did that, they'd be more likely to market that capability to TV stations for 6 figures so they wouldn't have to pay their meteorologists overtime every time severe weather cropped up. 😉 

Almost makes me wonder if the feature doesn't work with live weather, and you have to actually go in and tell it to spawn a tornado in a specific place.
