Details:
The "slow" status effect decreases how far a unit can move, and thus
decreases how far it can see. This currently isn't caught by (at least) two
other parts of the code:
1 - when you click on an enemy unit to move-and-attack, the game doesn't
update fog until after the attack is over, at which point your attacking unit
might be slowed, thus _never_ giving the player the opportunity to see what
the unit would have seen by simply moving first. (Heck, what if it _dies_ in
the combat?) This could be solved by making the unit actually do a real move
with full fog-updating before doing the attack.
2 - [event]s with name=sighted currently catch almost all situations where
one unit comes into view of another side, but they don't catch it when a
unit's sight expands as it loses the "slow" effect at the end of its turn.
