Summary0009633: Shadow Control
DescriptionAlthough I absolutely love the shadow system, I thought I'd point out two things I noticed.

- Windows do not create shadows, so when they're on the west side of a house, they create breaks in the house's shadow.

- Shadows are created on top of blue sky pits, which is a little odd.

Given windows are transparent, I did that on purpose. But the blue sky thing is definitely not intentional!

-fixed it up so that shadows no longer draw on skies (minus a few little blips in a couple of spots, but that's something I'll have to come back to).
--generally speaking, avoiding drawing shadows on skies is enormously hard, but it may be something I can address better later when I start doing a precombined shadow draw method.

Thanks!
