What just happened?

I was fiddling with the EEP viewer, trying to get things to not look worse than they did before EEP and was having very limited success, when I got distracted by the fact that the moon simply is unaffected entirely by horizon haze / fog. It just hangs in the sky like a sticker for #reasons.

What were you doing when it happened?

Looking at any skyline at any setting. ( Seriously how did EEP make it to release with this? ) This isn't a "under certain conditions some edge case misbehaves." ~ The 'edge case' is the moon rises. It does this all the time.

You can see in this screenshot the clouds start obscuring it, sort of, but the horizon haze? Nothing.

What were you expecting to happen instead?

^ This is what a hazy moonrise / moon set should look like~ ( from a pre-EEP viewer ) The bulk of the haze obscures the moondisk and diffuses the light. The sun works like this on EEP but the moon does not...

Other information

EEP upsets me still.

Second Life Release 6.4.11.551711 (64bit)

Maybe I'm misunderstanding how I'm supposed to use these settings.  But the moon now seems to unconditionally fade out as it approaches the horizon line, regardless of whether there's any weather.  Given a cloudless, haze-less sky the moon still fades away into nonthingness upon approach of the horizon line.  Most skies have at least some haze and clouds, so this is not the most urgent of issues.  However, in situations where the horizon line is crystal clear there is something starkly incorrect, as they seem to be entirely deprived of their moonrises.  The dimming effect of the atmospheric water should be more pronounced the more haze and clouds there are in the way, while still having the moondisc be visible when there is no atmospherics or very thin atmospherics to disrupt the clear view.   This should not be a binary thing.

Note how cloud-density and haze density sliders are all zeroed and the moon continues to fade out. 

 

Also, in a related, but somewhat separate issue, the water reflection of moon and sun-brightness still seems to be a functionally binary value.

https://gyazo.com/7fa271d226e57b5b11f50603d602cb50

You can see there's no water reflection difference between 0.01 and 1.0 values, but 0.00 flicks it off like a light-switch.

Ahh I didn't realize there was a dedicated Jira to this already. I just noticed we went from zero haze/ cloud occlusion to "always occluded regardless of haze / clouds".  It was suggested I bump this Jira instead of filing a new one.
