Owner 2026-08-03: «лучи поярче, иногда плохо видны. Убрать плавное
затухание — появляться и исчезать анимацией в 2 секунды при переходе
через 3 градуса над горизонтом».
RAY_MAX_ALPHA 0.18 -> 0.30: checked against both hard cases, a daylight
sun on white paper and a low sun over the dark glow canvas
(demo/shot_sun_bright.mjs writes the pair).
The gradual ramp-in over the first ~2 degrees is gone. rayAlpha() is now a
threshold: 0 below RAY_ELEVATION_MIN (3), rayPeakAlpha(cloud) at or above
it — cloud cover stays the only multiplier. Crossing it animates the
LAYER, never the geometry: <g class='sunlayer'> fades in/out over exactly
RAY_FADE_MS = 2 s (hp-sunfade-in / hp-sunfade-out), and the card keeps the
group mounted with .out for those two seconds so the dissolve can play at
all. prefers-reduced-motion skips it. Every other reason to drop the
wedges — editor, feature off, night, rain — stays instant.
Units: rayAlpha rewritten (ramp tests dropped), raysVisible/rayPeakAlpha/
RAY_MAX_ALPHA covered. Smoke: smoke_sun gains a threshold section (8 of
its checks fail on the previous build). docs/SUN.md + TESTING.md updated.
