Hey folks!

This patch focuses on improving lightmap-based ambient occlusion (LBAO). It is the most graphically-intensive effect in the game, and the goal of these optimizations is to allow as many people as possible to play with it enabled, since it makes a big difference in visual quality.
As the game's creator I want people to play with the effect enabled, as opposed to disabled.

Visuals & optimizations

- optimized & improved LBAO:
- indirect light spread simulation now more prominent
- at all quality levels LBAO now provides greater visual quality and requires less GPU power or, at worst, provides greater visual quality at same GPU power
- a performance improvement of up to 30% can be observed, depending on user GPU and selected graphical quality level of the effect

Thanks for reading, hope you're enjoying the game!
