Much happier with this now. Downside a lot less accuracy with close objects. SSAO can catch some of that, but maybe I'll add PSSM shadows back for the highest detail level. Seems like a good compromise. But gotta sleep a night over it - get a fresh perspective. :)

Decided on tossing PSSM shadows completely and relying only on Orthagonal ones. Shadow Quality instead increases the shadow map size from 4k (low) to 12k (high) pixels. The impact on FPS is non-existent - just needs a bit more VRAM.

That is my next idea should I need more keys. But ideally I'd like to prevent doing that. I am not smart enough to make this intuitive and it's kind of a pain to make remapping options for such a system.

I'm tempted to make Auto-Fly the constant mode and free up the Fly Up/Down keys. Cause I am using every single button on a gamepad. But being able to move independently from where you're looking can be so helpful when building. So more options it is.

Mind you, I am not looking for a PC-TV console. I am looking for my next PC. Workhorse. Something small, efficient and ready to game.
