Replace the multi-sample silhouette probe with one camera->target raycast: any world geometry in the line of sight arms the cut, a clear line keeps occluders solid. The shader carves a world-space cone (apex at the camera, radius growing toward the target) so the screen-space hole stays a constant size regardless of occluder depth, with a soft radial fade plus a symmetric axial fade around the target so geometry just behind the player feathers out instead of hard-cutting along a plane. Anything well past the target stays solid. Also suppresses the deoccluder pull-in so the camera holds its orbit distance and the cut takes over.
