All I can say is if you have an odd contour with big spacing the yellow highlight was on permanently. Got around it by using the square placement. This was a cliff circumventing a valley in a very large swath of my map. Since I have a work around - and nobody else can duplicate it - I'm just going to move on.
And a comment on the new lighting going to test first - not that anyone will pay attention but I feel it must be stated somewhere....
Extensions have bits of CoreRPG and other ruleset code inside them sometimes because they cannot be changed and still call the old version (should always try to do this but not always possible). The new lighting changes will change some of these bits. When TEST comes out the extensions will have to make sure their bits are updated with any new stuff. This only happens if people are paying attention and know to do this. So fair warning:
When TEST comes up with lighting I predict a bunch of regular users will get on and try to play with it. I predict they will leave their extensions turned on when they do this. I predict they will report a whole bunch - of what I like to call - extension spam bugs as if its the actual lighting code with the issue. So I'd like to say to the people who do pay attention, that the only VALID bug to report during TEST phase to FGU is if you have 0 extensions turned on. And if you do have 1 extension turned on to test the behavior with it - then you can report that to the person who wrote it and say that their extension is messing up the lighting because you tested it with it on and with it off to verify it. But gist is - you should be testing with 0 extensions on if your just a regular user playing around with it. Or you will create a wall of SPAM errors that slow things down immensely.

Silent Ruin, that is a very valid point. I have a special campaign now called my "clean test campaign" and it's a campaign with no extensions turned on. I can easily test one at a time. I have a second test campaign with all the extensions turned on that I use for testing other things (or making tutorials for my group), but I would encourage everyone to always try FIRST with NO extensions running (and maybe turn off all unnecessary modules as well).

I predict that unless Smiteworks put a Pop Up window on FGU when they do a major update with a link to a forum post detailing the changes and that extensions need updating there will always be people reporting bugs that are not bugs and that most of FG users will not use the Test version because they would rather play their game and not corrupt their campaign data permanently.
