So many neat things are created using graphical glitches that have been there since...forever.


* Alpha textures sorted more accurately
** Example: the hollow inner surface of a sphere will no longer draw on top of the outer surface
** This change may cause content using alpha textures to appear differently

I've said it before and I'll say it again, never rely on graphical glitches in your builds as fixing the glitch will break most of your stuff.

Let this be a lesson to you.

Why? Maybe it's so they can actually fix alpha stacking for a change :p
