 //! Debug affordances are bound behind a modifier chord so they cannot collide with movement keys: [`DEBUG_MODIFIER`] (F1) is held, and a second key selects the affordance. The currently bound chords are:
 //!
-//! - **F1 + V**: toggles the [`RenderMode::Points`] debug rasterisation mode, which draws one point per mesh vertex. Pressing it again returns to [`RenderMode::Filled`].
+//! - **F1 + V**: filled terrain with vertex points overlaid, showing where the mesher placed geometry without losing the surface.
+//! - **F1 + B**: filled terrain with the triangle edges overlaid, showing the size and shape of the emitted quads.
+//!
+//! Holding a [`SOLO_MODIFIER`] (either Shift) as well drops the filled pass, leaving the debug geometry alone against the clear colour: **F1 + Shift + V** for points only, **F1 + Shift + B** for wireframe only.
+//!
+//! Each chord toggles: pressing the chord for the active mode returns to [`RenderMode::Filled`].
