smog_sky

# art.smog_sky Sky-domain shader for Smog's Whitechapel night, 1888. A low, heavy green-grey smog deck drifts slowly overhead: two cloud shells (a heavy lower deck of domain-warped billows and a thin, wind-streaked upper veil) projected onto a curved shell, so they close up into a murky band toward the horizon. Lighting: - **Moon** from `in.sun_direction` (the scene's directional light IS the moon). Moonlight diffuses through the deck brightest in the moon's quarter, thin cloud near the moon forward-scatters it into a silver lining, dense cores stay dark, and a one-step self-shadow toward the moon gives the lumps relief. The disc is small and crisp with faint maria, veiled by passing cloud (cloud opacity occludes it), with a corona that brightens where thin cloud covers it, a faint 22-degree ring and a cleared patch around it (`moon_clearing`). - **City gaslight**: a dirty amber glow reflected off the cloud undersides, patchy in azimuth and strongest at the horizon, so the street-level horizon is the brightest band and the zenith fades to near-black blue-green. - A few faint, wide stars, only in gaps high up. Below the horizon it continues as smoggy green-grey (`ground_*`) with no seam at y = 0. Every colour is a hue paired with an `*_intensity` in linear radiance; the output is linear HDR before the camera's exposure and ACES. `black_level` is a flat pedestal added last that offsets the district grade's contrast, which otherwise crushes the darkest ~0.035 of sky light to black. Leave it at 0 under an untouched post chain. A triangular hash dither (`dither`) keeps the gradients from banding. Animation runs on `in.time` (`wind_speed`, `wind_dir`), so the sky stands still in edit mode. Used by `art.smog_sky` (material) through a `Skybox` component: `entity.spawn("Sky").component.add("Skybox", { material = "art.smog_sky" })`.
