For several months now, I've been having problems with line of sight.

I create all the walls, and then when we play, we notice that you can see through them.

Deleting the walls and resetting them does NOT work.

Placing a second wall next to the wall at a different angle can sometimes help, but it makes the maps look messy. I have attached a few screenshots and uploaded a video.

I thought it was just a bug but now and then but today I tried to map three floors of Argynvostholt (CoS), and I have several such spots on each floor. It's really annoying.

Extensions i use:
Feature: Advanced Effects
Feature: Extraplanar Containers

I also made some Screenshots. The Screen named "only way to fix it" is from another part of the map where i present you the only way to fix it (for a while)

edit:
it happens only at corners where more walls are coming together. the next one: 66169

I'm sure the developers would appreciate if you could provide a zip'd copy of the campaign with the tokens preplaced and the images in the correct state so that they can quickly reproduce.

There have been some example of the line-of-sight sweep algorithm missing segments. Usually these can be resolved by adding an additional point on the segment or moving the segment points slightly off the grid. I haven't seen any that require such dramatic modifications. If you can provide a copy of the campaign, I'll be happy to take a look.

@pindercarl You seem to suggest that you know there are problems. Any idea when we will have line-of-sight fixed/better?
