Hi all,

You will have to make a custom frog rain command within a mod, or customcommands.lua file, or edit the frog rain component directly and add something else (because the game checks if it is spring, how wet the place is and so on).

Example:

local function GetSpawnPoint(pt)
	local function TestSpawnPoint(offset)
		local spawnpoint = pt + offset
		return GLOBAL.TheWorld.Map:IsPassableAtPoint(spawnpoint:Get())
	end

	local theta = math.random() * 2 * GLOBAL.PI
	local radius = math.random() * 15
	local resultoffset = GLOBAL.FindValidPositionByFan(theta, radius, 12, TestSpawnPoint)

	if resultoffset ~= nil then
		return pt + resultoffset
	end
end

local function OnTargetSleep(frog)
	frog:DoTaskInTime(0, frog.Remove)
end

local function SpawnFrog(player)
	local pt = player:GetPosition()
	local spawn_point = GetSpawnPoint(pt)
	local frog = GLOBAL.SpawnPrefab("frog")
	frog.persists = false
	if math.random() < 0.5 then
		frog.Transform:SetRotation(180)
	end
	frog.sg:GoToState("fall")
	frog.Physics:Teleport(spawn_point.x, 35, spawn_point.z)
	frog.persists = false
	frog:ListenForEvent("entitysleep", OnTargetSleep)
end

local timings = {1, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 4.3, 5, 5.2, 6, 7, 7.2, 7.4, 7.6}

local function SpawnFrogsForPlayer(player)
	for i, v in ipairs(timings) do
		player:DoTaskInTime(v, SpawnFrog)
	end
end

AddPlayerPostInit(function(inst)
	inst.SpawnFrogsForPlayer = SpawnFrogsForPlayer
end)

-- to enable ThePlayer:SpawnFrogsForPlayer() in console

I stripped the spawning out of the component and made it an accessible single liner for console.
