Since the latest release which included lighting, we have noticed a few bugs.

1. Devil Sight does not work properly. Character can see inside rooms with lights on even when the room is not in line of sight. I.E. character is not in the room.
2. The Darkness effect creates a sphere that is 2.5 cubes instead of 3. this only 12.5 feet instead of 15. This may be due to the smallest 20ft pointer circle being actually 15 feet and the largest 15ft pointer circle being 12.5 ft.
3. When moving the Darkness circle it leaves behind the darkness effect. This ends up creating 2 Darkness circles until the player refreshes the map.
4. When moving around the perimeter of the Darkness circle players can see what is behind the darkness.
5. Some squares in the darkness reveal instead of hide.
6. Players can see each other regardless of distance or obstacles.

Has anybody else experienced these bugs.

Darkness is experimental is in known to not work correctly for most rulesets.

Devil Sight is also not supported in any ruleset,.

Devilsight is mapped to Truesight in the 5E ruleset, since it is essentially darkvision which ignores magical darkness.

As @LordEntrails mentions, darkness is experimental right now, and we're just tracking issues.

We would need a little more detail to recreate your scenarios to make sure we can address when we get to that point. Specific step by step examples and pictures work best to illuminate what you are seeing.

There have been no updates to Devil's Sight in the release notes. That's probably the easiest way to keep track of what's been worked on :)

There are also release notes for rulesets, though this issue should be under the application itself.
