benilla-octo/crates/benilla-formats/examples/wmo_coplanar.rs

//! Which batches of a WMO are **coplanar with each other**, and by how much:
//! `cargo run -p benilla-formats --example wmo_coplanar -- <wmo-path-or-substring> [gap_yd]`
//! e.g. `wmo_coplanar orctower 0.05`.
//!
//! The falsifier for a z-fighting report. Two surfaces that swap which one is in front do it for one
//! of two reasons, and they take different fixes: a **true tie** (the author put both faces on the
//! same plane, so the depth test has nothing to decide with and the winner is whoever drew last) or
//! **depth precision** (a real but tiny separation that quantises away). The distinction is a
//! property of the *file*, not of the frame — so read it here rather than inferring it from pixels.
//!
//! Prints, for every pair of batches whose geometry overlaps in space, the smallest plane gap between
//! near-parallel faces that actually overlap. A `0.000` gap is a tie; anything else is a separation
//! to compare against the depth buffer's resolution at that range.
//!
//! Output is Blizzard data — pipe it to the scratchpad, never into the repo.
