Objects are not hidden by fog of war when different player is revealing them#1586

T

Using Fog of War area with “Re-hide Objects” enabled. If an object is is revealed by 2 different revealers, with have different reveal colors, that object keeps being revealed for a player even if he moves his pawns so they no longer are able to reveal the target.

Steps to reproduce:

  • Place down 2 revealer pawn objects
  • Place down a target object
  • Place Fog of War zone with “Hide Objects” and “Re-hide Objects” enabled
  • Toggle on “Reveal Fog of War” on the spotter pawns
  • Set the revealer options so the pawns reveal to 2 different player colors each (ie. one for white and 1 for blue)
  • Move the target into the Fog of war, it should disappear
  • Move the 2 revealer pawns so they have the target within revealing range
  • As one of the players, that the reavelers are for, move your pawn so it can no longer reveal the target
  • The bug happens here: As long as the other player pawn is revealing the target you will still be able to see it, even if you shouldn’t. If you move the other pawn away so it can no longer spot the target, the target will properly disappear.
  • If only your pawn is revealing the target then the target will properly disappear
  • If you move other player’s pawn so it can reveal the target then you will not see the target, so this works properly
  • If you grab the target and move it out of view range of the revealers (while still within Fog of War area) it will still be visible to the players

This creates a really big issue as it makes it nearly impossible player vs player situations with fog of war in play as players will keep seeing the opponent figurines even after they move out of their line of sight.
