| Summary | 0012359: Sensor vs LOS vs Fog of War mechanic initially confusing | ||||
| Description | LOS was pretty clear. No issues there. Sensor range I didn't get at first. It wasn't clear to me why I could see x squares up and down but only y to the right. I thought maybe it had to do with sensors passing through walls and such. I was also expecting sensors to maintain their range whether or not I had visited a square. I expected things outside my sensor range to fade into fog-of-war. I can that the 'once visible, always perfect info' mechanic has some tie to the 'whistle' mechanic, so understand it's not a straightforward request to introduce fog-of-war for things outside the present sensor range. | ||||

Not having the intel after you've visited it is something I considered, and we did do it that way at one point, but then you have to have a different way for representing four levels of LOS: current vision, in-sensor, seeen-but-no-sensor, and never-seen. That gets incredibly visually complex fast, and just doesn't feel right, so we changed it to this. |
