Palisade: constraint number not rendered in red #606

Closed Lucas-C closed 1 year ago

Lucas-C commented 1 year ago

Describe the bug In a specifc case, a cell number that should be rendered red because the constraint is NOT satisfied stays black.

As the screenshots below demonstrate, this only happens for some specific state, when at least one adjacent edge is yellow

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior: I don't really know

Expected behavior I expected the number 3 to be colored in red in all 4 configurations above.

Version info (optional, but sometimes helpful)

Yellow is the "maybe" state, meaning you might still put an edge there. The game doesn't consider it an error until you make enough edges grey (definite non-edges) that you definitely can't satisfy the constraint. Otherwise most of the numbered squares would be red from the start which would be very distracting. This isn't just Palisade; it's consistent across all similar games.

OK, thank you for the explanation
