+subject: Planet atmospheres no longer veil the disc: the density from the atmosphere layer goes up to 1 (was 2) and AtmosphereDensity is 0.25 by default (was 0.5) - a dense layer laid a bright veil in the planet's hue over the whole disc (Br03_01 planet_earth_3000: olive drawn bright yellow); the rim still glows
 tree:    clean
 build:   OK
