# Objective

Implements cascaded shadow maps for directional lights, which produces better quality shadows without needing excessively large shadow maps.

Fixes #3629

## Solution

Rather than rendering a single shadow map for directional light, the view frustum is divided into a series of cascades, each of which gets its own shadow map. The correct cascade is then sampled for shadow determination.

---

## Changelog

Directional lights now use cascaded shadow maps for improved shadow quality.


## Migration Guide

You no longer have to manually specify a `shadow_projection` for a directional light, and these settings should be removed. If customization of how cascaded shadow maps work is desired, modify the `CascadeShadowConfig` component instead.
