+ // In this method a few of the combinations are "usable" but the water colour is effectively inverted (blue becomes yellow)
+ // this seems to be unlikely to be a desirable use case for the majority.
+ // 2) Force density to be an arbitrary non-negative (i.e. 1) when underwater and modifier is not an integer (1 was aribtrarily chosen as it gives at least some notion of fog in the transition)
+ // This is more restrictive, effectively forcing a density under certain conditions, but allowing the range of #1 and avoiding blackness in other cases
