Render Distance Multiplier [BepinexMods]

For now it's just multipliers for settings. For render distance multiplier at setting levels Medium, High and Extreme. Extreme setting with default miltiplier 2 will show frame structures at 500 m.

There's also Shadows distance, Light shadows distance and Shadows distance multiplier's modifiers.

Multipliers is configurable in Stationeers/BepInEx/config/RenderDistanceMod.cfg

Mod is overwriting methods of OcclusionManager.UpdateRenderDistanceMultiplier and ShadowQualitySetting.Apply.

---------------- Old mod version for previous stable game version (to switch you can rename two dll in mod folder at SteamLibrary\steamapps\workshop\content\544550\3171327238)

Fix for game settings and occlusion calculations to make Objects Distance Multiplier slider in Advanced settings be useful. Max value will let big structures be show up at 650 meters.

Stairs and Draggable things (crates, portable devices, mining robots) set as big structure too. Also max render distance for terrain chunks is raised to 650 m. At 650 m LOD terrain usually disappear. Cannot change it for now. Trying to enlarge LOD plane size and Alpha cutout distance.

Basic shadows distance with too short values got modified. Added config for shadows and wall light-generated shadows modifiers.

Config file is Stationeers/BepInEx/config/RenderDistanceMod.cfg Can change max values there and also switch rendering types, like affect only big structures and draggables. By default all things is affected by modifier.

It made with full barbaric overwrite of Thing.SetOcclusion, so other mods will cannot use this method. ---
