ok that's the top to bottom order of operations + all lookups + inlined interpolation for the new renderer! i just added depth test. without further optimizations we are at 15ms, just barely squeaking in to hit 60fps! about twice the performance of the previous renderer.

i maybe found a hazeless tuning set i like. it's not 100% but there is something there.

ok i got individual layer colors working with precomputed! (actual colors are messed up at present.) i don't yet know if this is actually faster than the other approach. it depends where the bottlenecks are. if array lookups are where it's binding, then this is no better. if it's per ray math, good.

it works, the new renderer is bug free! to catch folks up on the experiment, this is a zero polygon renderer which uses a heightmap raycaster similar to comanche. it's a single pass with terrain + n bookended pairs of layered geometry, so you can do overlaps.

you can get some interesting color variation + banding if you use deliberately-not-right bitwise compositing. things bleed into other channels + it messes with relative brightness.

i am adding cloud movement, and i ran into a rather amazing glitch

today i'm doing generative work. i have two heights of bridges, and i'm going to add higher bridges as well. i'm also going to work on special cases for how bridges connect to buildings and walls. i really like the compound curves around these 1st floor ones, and i want to continue that language.

surprisingly, even with so much of the little sensor ring (is that the potentiometer itself?) missing. the drift seems to be nonexistent. i wonder if it will come back later. looking at it in a calibration tool, there is no evident drift and the flutter it had is gone.

oh! that was an unexpected bug. i was just going to do dithered shadows and i ended up with... i think it's the span lengths messing with the dither?

i think maybe if i find the right magic value, i can do shadows by bitmasking?
