Issue Title: Prism Disguise Failure

Issue Description: I know there are already a few of these reports, especially with regards to cameras. This is one where Prism's disguise failed when she moved into a covered square.

Steps to Reproduce: Not sure if it always applies in these scenarios, but here's what may be relevant:

Prism activated her disguise, moved undetected past a guard, closing a couple of doors behind her.

She then entered a square that was within a guard's cone of vision but covered (yellow).

That square was on a diagonal from the guard observing it, but that guard was facing that diagonal, so if the cover hadn't been there I would have expected her disguise to fail. It's only that the cover was there that makes this a bug.

Also, I doubt this was relevant, but I'm pretty sure Prism entered that square on the diagonal, from a point that was visible to the same guard.

Guards don't use cover. Prism in disguise doesn't use cover.

Oh, I hadn't thought of that.

 

So this isn't a bug report, more of a "huh, that's weird" report. Should it work like that?

 

If her disguise fails, shouldn't it be because a guard has recognized that she's not a guard? Shouldn't he go into alert mode, or at least investigate the square where her disguise was spotted?

 

Or, should the fact that there's a cover object in the way, even if she can't really use cover while she's disguised, mean that the guard can't see her well enough to break her disguise?
