Machinefall trees end at the streaming ring (about 256-360 m) on a 2 km map. The engine already keeps whole-map far impostor aggregates behind WorldCells impostors: true, which the game never sets; it stays off for the PR #375 shadow regression. The cell proxy GLBs hold props, not trees, so they are not the fix.

TL;DR: Machinefall's far hills are bare because trees end at the streaming ring (about 256–360 m) on a 2 km map. The engine already has whole-map far impostors behind
WorldCellsimpostors: true; the game never turns it on, and it stays opt-in because of the PR #375 shadow regression. This PRD turns it on and fixes that regression.PRD:

world.25d1d6a1.json): 121,421 placements, 67,585 trees, 3.9 MB of placement data for the whole map. The 86 cell proxy GLBs hold props (grass, shrubs, a watchtower, cars), not trees, 485 MB in total, so drawing them far is not the fix.Checklist
