Bake sometimes outputs garbage results

[Fewes]

Unknown why. Might be an issue with using temporary RenderTextures. Restarting usually fixes it.

Oh, maybe it's related to something I observed - note that when using RenderTexture.GetTemporary, the state of the texture you get is not defined (specifically: it's not guaranteed to be clear or have a clear alpha channel).
I've switched to "regular" creation of RenderTextures for everything non-realtime and didn't have "sometimes garbage results" with baking since then.

I've switched to using non-temp RTs now (e53c829) and the issue seems to have gone away. Thanks for the feedback!

Might be worth opening a bug report with Unity to get some insight into this too! It's not good that RT.GetTemporary (which was advertised as a faster alternative to the "regular way") creates undefined results.

I'm still seeing this issue sometimes, might have to do with how I try to clear and reuse the RT instead of allocating a new one. Need to do some more testing before I can count this as solved it seems.
