[Bldg-sim] Landscapes and tree shading in Equest

[Peter Alspach]

the other advantage of building shades is that they can have a shading
schedule - to allow for variations in vegetation density throughout the
year.

You can include them as fixed shades or building shades. (see project

window shade will only shade that window regardless of how long it is.
