Input.text, App.monitor_count / window_to_monitor / window_fixed,
gl_sleep_us, and the grass and collide changes, uncommitted on main and
depended on by the game; carried here so the language work starts from
what the game actually uses. main's working tree is untouched.
layer_flutter(l, v) gives a scatter layer a per-leaf tremble. The vertex stage offsets
each leaf by a phase taken from its own place on the card, so neighbouring leaves are
never in step, and writes the result out as a varying the fragment stage uses to flash
the leaf's pale underside as it turns - which is the part that reads, since a still
frame of a tremble is a still frame of nothing. One uniform, one varying, no extra pass.
And the sway itself was measured in METRES: hgt * hgt * 0.35 is right for a 40 cm
flower and puts ten metres of sideways into a 14 m trunk, so every tall tree in the
valley stood bent over like a fishing rod. It is a fraction of the model's own height
now - the tip moves a few per cent of the tree whatever the tree is, and the base does
not move at all.

The chunked grass path draws each chunk as one mesh-shader dispatch when the
setting asks and the card has VK_EXT_mesh_shader: work group y is a tile, x a
batch of 16 of its blades, and a blade the placement, density, frustum, water
or slope tests reject emits nothing - the instanced path still runs its eight
vertices to a degenerate position. grass.mesh generates the same blades as
grass.vert (grass_blade_mesh(4)'s rows, the same hashes, sway and lighting
normal), capped at the instanced path's 65535 a tile.
Vulkan: VK_EXT_mesh_shader with meshShader, and maintenance4 (glslang's mesh
stages declare LocalSizeId); vkCmdDrawMeshTasksEXT looked up per device, as the
Streamline interposer exports none; a *.mesh program's pipeline takes the mesh
stage and no vertex input, its bindings the mesh stage bit. gpu_has_mesh,
gpu_draw_mesh_tasks; r3d_mesh_grass and R3D_MESH_GRASS / R3D_NO_MESH.
bin/ludic-dev rebuilt: the committed binary predated the shader tool's mesh
support and compiled grass.mesh as a vertex stage.
PC (RTX 3070 Ti): the camp matches the chunked path; validation only the
no-window present-id message.
