setting the render layer to "wires-above" fixed it

"wires-above" is last layer below clouds shadows, so it's not a bug.

As for why cloud shadows are not in higher layer - I don't know. Person who was integrating the clouds doesn't work with us anymore and there is no explanation in comments nor commit messages why the cloud layer was added to that particular. Next two layers are ENTITY_INFO_ICON and ELECTRICITY_ICON, so I assume it was intentionally placed just under the alt-mode overlay.
