- Currently disabled by the macro ENABLE_MATERIAL_LAYER_PROTOTYPE until we have a fully fleshed out system to enable.
- Implemented 2 new Substrate nodes: Get and Set attributes. Get allows the embedding of a Front Material with general Material Attributes for passing between functions, and Set splits the Material Attributes back into Front Material and Non-Substrate attributes. These are not strictly for use in Layering. This allows the Material Attributes including Substrate data to pass between Layers and Blends smoothly.
- Changed the autopopulation of Layer and Blend function material graphs to utilise the Get and Set attributes nodes. Non Substrate Attributes continue to pass through the legacy blend node, which only supports Horizontal blending. The Front Material is now separated and passes through the Substrate Horizontal Mixing node. This all occurs via a new engine level Blend Material Function MLB_Horizontal.
- Created update paths to convert legacy material layers to utilise the new Substrate structure (automatically converts to Horizontal mixing only)
- Created these structures using the "MaterialFunctionUsage" flags at the Function level -> This will ensure the ability to create contextual re-use of material functions regardless of whether they are marked layer or not.
- Altered the Preview functionality of Blend nodes so the expected output is clearer (uses the Input's embedded PreviewValue). Created a static default substrate slab creator function which supports this with any override color.
- Changed the colour of the Substrate utility nodes to match Substrate

Iris - Object scope hysteresis support. Keep dynamically filtered out objects around for a specified amount of frames. Configure behavior via hysteresis profiles that determine the frame timeout per class. The filter config for a specific class can then mention the hysteresis profile in order to get the appropriate behavior. Config example is present in ReplicationFilteringConfig.h
Note: Hysteresis is enabled by default with a frame count of 6.
