[WIP] Implement distance fade and transparency #50654
Conversation
* ALPHA in shader comes pre-set with a distance fade. Multiply by it if you want fade to work. * Added transparency and distance fade for clustered renderer. (will add support in mobile renderer after it works). Currently this does nothing, this PR is intended to be continued by @JFonS.

For the dithering part, remember that interleaved gradient noise could be used to have a cheaper and better-looking effect. |

@Calinou I will add a render mode to make alpha use dithered noise and remain opaque so, if you want objects to fade this way, you can also. Afterwards will remove all the distance fade code from StandardMaterial. |
StandardMaterial3D distance fade can still be used to fade objects that are close to the camera (e.g. third-person character or light flares), so I'd keep it for that reason at least. Adding a render mode to make all kinds of alpha use dithering is a good idea, especially for things like vegetation or grates when you don't want them to use a slower transparent pipeline. |
