I would add that bogus views rarely is a problem in the case of melee attacks. The reason for this is that almost all units have a vision range of at least 1, which means that the view of a cell is up-to-date anyway when you attack it. My bug fix would apply also to attack actions, but that is just to cover oddball situations like "blind" units and attack ranges greater than 1 cell. Hans
