Finally added alpha dithering to our particle shaders! @Skepsisology has been requesting this for ages.
We use it for 2 things: fading out smoke that's too close to the camera, and fading out smoke over lifetime.
Here's how we did it (THREAD):#gamedev #unitytips #madewithunity pic.twitter.com/n2w9A42UZ0

Learning about Unitys ECS framework really forces me to think about memory layout when coding. Kind of neat : ) Each cube is an Entity processed by a fluid solver 'System' (rendered using HDRP's Hybrid Renderer which supports rendering ECS Entities) pic.twitter.com/dMqfplUzP2
