[General] - Hacked cameras don't show vision

Platform: PC

Issue Title: Hacked cameras don't show vision

Issue Description: I hacked a camera and it didn't show vision. Luckily I caught it red-handed and reloading the save does not fix it. It's on my second save slot (time attack).

Steps to Reproduce: Load the save

Notice the hacked camera that doesn't show vision.

Here's the save because I guess I didn't hit the button at the bottom?

and here's the actual save because I uploaded the wrong one and can't find a way to edit my posts >.>savegame.lua

Same happened to me on the final mission

 

Savegame is attached.

Same problem, I think, although in my case it gave me vision of the camera and one space in front of it, but not any further. Then when I went to check it out (Decker peeked through the door), it gave me "vision" of the correct area, in that it was properly lit, but I couldn't see enemies who were standing in the camera's line of sight and I couldn't Observe to predict their next movement unless I kept a character in range.

 

Decker can see:

Decker moves away, camera can't see:

Frustrating. Here's mine, hope it helps.

 

Edited to attach correct .lua file

Happened to me too, first mission, second room. Here is my savefile, as well as two screenshots. Hope this helps! This is the first time it has happened to me by the way, but I had read about the issue.

I continued with the savefile I posted and encountered a few other weird things.

 

First of all, that shortsighted camera problem happened again, have a screenshot!

 

Vision seem screwed up in general in this run, since when I peek into an empty room then close the door, I retain my full room vision even though I should only see a part of it. Here's a screenshot of what I mean.

 

And finally, I've found three guards hanging out in a back room with only one exit. Those were the only guards in the level, and I found it odd (It's a K&O server farm). I take it that's not supposed to happen?

 

This is about my 8th run of the game, and it's the first time I've encountered these odd bits. Should I do something about it?

 

Thanks!

Well my playthrough wall all kinds of odd... I had a stun grenade but couldn't throw it. There was no "throw" option when I clicked on it.

 

Sorry if I'm adding this unrelated bit, but all of these quirks, the limited camera vision, the full room vision through a closed door, the weird level generation that put all of its guards in a far off room and now the unusable grenade all showed up in this one playthrough, and I had never seen those happen before.

 

Again, I hope this helps somehow. Do you guys think I should maybe reinstall the game or something? I just verified the integrity of my game files and everything validated correctly.

 

Cheers.

No need to reinstall the game if cache verification was correct.

That's not a glitch. You've always been able to open a door, peak, then close the door and retain full vision. Pretty sure it's intentional, I think I saw a dev do that on a stream.

Hmmm... I went back and it seems you're right. I could have sworn though that my vision got reduced as soon as I closed the door after peeking. My bad then.

I have a savegame in which you can reproduce this error AND it only happens for some of the cameras.

Just rewind and hit oracle a few times.
