This was requested by Rob Shakespear Added -i* and -o* options in rhcopy for reading rays from the standard input and writing rays from holodeck to standard output. This will hopefully be useful in combining rholo with rcontrib. + +Added further checking for coincident (overlapping) flat surfaces, +preferring front sides to back sides in the ray intersection +calculation. This only applies to rings and faces, as the other +surface types would have required additional calculations to +make them work. Material transparency is still the primary +consideration, now followed by ray hit side, followed by +modifier definition order in the input. + +Increased octree and object limits to allow scenes with billions +of primitives. + +Made reciprocity averaging default to "off" in bsdf2ttree, as it seems +to create more problems than it solves.
