Minor shroud niggle

Post by Spannerbag »

Hello,
Can't remember now if the game has always done this, but when using shroud it appears impossible to clear the border hexes that do not partially occupy the map.

E.g. I set shroud=yes in my test scenario and at the start the game duly placed shroud everywhere, then cleared it due to side 1 leader's vision:

The map is small, 8x8 and when I cleared the shroud, either by

Code: Select all

[remove_shroud]
[/remove_shroud]
or

Code: Select all

[remove_shroud]
  side=1
  x=0-9
  y=0-9
[/remove_shroud]
These shrouded border hexes persisted.

Code: Select all

[redraw]
[/redraw]
Did nothing (but didn't expect it to, TBH)

This cosmetic detail isn't a big deal but is annoying.

Setting shroud=no removes these hexes.

So, is there anything I'm missing that will allow me to clear this "shroud border clutter" while the side has shroud=yes?

Cheers!
