ForeverFPS Beta: 7.1.12.13206144235

Description

Note that if the Reflection Probe Ambiance is changed, this issue does not reproduce.
Legacy skies are showing the Reflection Probe Ambiance as 0.01 but readjusting back to 0.01 shows a completely different lit scene.

User B on ExtraFPS or ForeverFPS (or FS Beta 7.1.12)

- User B: Open the sky setting. It appears as the following:
