Pixel-art sci-fi hull panels with glowing lights

Generate a tileable pixel-art sci-fi plating module at a chosen art resolution: panels split into plates with seams and bevels, each with rivets, vent slits, a grille, a light strip, indicator lamps or hazard stripes, with metallic, emissive, normal, height, roughness and occlusion maps. Use for 2D space stations.

Limits to consider

Stylized pixel art with the light from the top left baked into the plate bevels. The module repeats on a regular panel grid aligned with the tile edges, which suits modular plating but shows the grid on large areas. Plates are rectangles split at most twice; details are fixed small patterns, and lights do not animate. Metal and glass take fixed roughness values per class. The normal map treats each art pixel as a flat facet. Output sizes that are not a whole multiple of art_pixels give art pixels of unequal widths. Occlusion is a blurred-height estimate posterized to eighths.
