ForestAtmos.lua

-- The air under the canopy: fog, god rays, and what drifts through them.
--
-- Some maps have an ATMOSPHERE (data/map_atmosphere.lua -- Viridian Forest
-- today, any map that adds a line tomorrow): a ground haze the scene shader
-- folds every surface into (see Voxel3D.fog), and VOLUMETRIC light let down
-- through an INVISIBLE canopy hanging above the map's real trees, as if the
-- carved hulls on screen were only the understorey of something taller.
--
-- The rays are not placed geometry. A fullscreen pass marches every
-- pixel's eye ray through the air, stops at the frame's own depth buffer
-- (the same detach-and-read Water runs), and asks two questions of every
-- step of air on the way:
--
--   * the SUN'S question -- the shadow map. Air behind a tree hull is
--     dark air; air in a real gap glows. A trunk stands in a column of
--     its own shade, a character walks through the beams and blocks
--     them, and every shaft on screen agrees with the light already on
--     the floor, because it is read from the same map.
--
--   * the CANOPY'S question -- where this thread of sun pierced the
--     invisible leaf layer. Every step of air on one sun ray shares that
--     point, which is what makes a shaft a SHAFT, and the point samples
--     a wind-blown noise field: the dapple drifts and shivers like
--     leaves moving overhead, opening and closing the beams as it goes.
--
-- The shafts lean along the fixed noon shear, deliberately: a canopy
-- map's rig is pinned to noon (see DayNight.CANOPY), so light that
-- followed the sun's arc would part company with every shadow on the
-- floor. What follows the clock is colour and strength -- gold spears of
-- sun by day, silver moon rays after dark, dying back through the
-- twilights -- plus the crew each shift brings: pollen adrift in the
-- day's beams, fireflies once they cool. A forward-scattering phase term
-- brightens the beams for a camera looking up into the light, which is
-- most of what makes them read as light in air rather than paint on it.
--
-- Everything is deterministic: placement and the leaf field are dealt by
-- a seeded xorshift (StadiumFx's generator), motion is a pure function
-- of one `time` uniform, so a pinned ForestAtmos.time reproduces a frame
-- exactly (see tests/forest_fog_shots). Every shader compiles lazily
-- behind pcall -- nil untried, false unavailable -- and each refusal
-- subtracts only itself: no march without readable depth, no beams
-- without a shadow map, and the fog rides the scene shader whatever
-- happens here.

-- march reads the depth buffer it actually has. The shadow lookup stays
-- flat, exactly like the scene shader's own vSun. STEPS is spliced into

-- there are no uniform arrays anywhere -- see the note in Sky about the
-- Android driver that reads them as zero.
