Resolved DrawRenderers Has Broken Sorting on Transparent

I want to render any transparent objects into the Custom Color Buffer using a DrawRenderers Custom Pass, but even using the default Custom Pass, I get sorting issues.

The default DrawRenderers Custom Pass:

This seems like a bug to me, but maybe I'm doing something wrong here? Would love any help!

Hey Remy, thanks for the response. Unfortunately that wasn't the issue. I tried clearing the all the buffers, but nothing changed.

However, I did solve it! I needed the Custom Pass to both write depth and to write color -- unfortunately, that meant that it did a ZTest when writing color, which I didn't want it to do on the smoke particles.

Instead, I changed to use two custom passes -- the first writes color, the second writes depth, and now it all seems sorted!
