bool IsSnowLineSet | ( | void |  | ) |

Has a snow line table already been loaded.

Returns:
  true if the table has been loaded already.

void SetSnowLine | ( | byte | table[SNOW_LINE_MONTHS][SNOW_LINE_DAYS] | ) |

Set a variable snow line, as loaded from a newgrf file.

Parameters:

  | table | the 12 * 32 byte table containing the snowline for each day

## Variable Documentation

SnowLine* _snow_line = NULL

Description of the snow line throughout the year.

If it is `NULL`, a static snowline height is used, as set by `_settings_game.game_creation.snow_line`. Otherwise it points to a table loaded from a newGRF file, that describes the variable snowline
