Played around with v4.1 briefly last night, and the first thing I noticed was that the only options for masking ambient light were rectangular, and hold alt to free draw. I think it would be much better if we had the polygonal drawing methods available for drawing LoS occluders. I imagine the lines would be much more efficient to calculate without having to freehand draw all non-vertical and horizontal lines.

I also noticed that ambient light does not pass through windows in the LoS layer. I realize interaction between these two systems might be difficult to implement but I think it would add a lot if possible.

There also should be circles and hexes for (un)masking.
