Increasing render distance via MAX_CELLS_TO_RENDER made a bug more visible. Z-ranges are incorrect for certain effects, causing them to be visible through terrain. Video below explains.

There is no regression--this appears to have always been around, but it is not present at the lowest render depth setting due to culling.
Tested with Level 7 - follow the guidebot to the first objective to disable the turrets, which will cause the blue electricity effects to appear.
