[Bug] Firefox: Fog is not working properly for players

[z31t]

Masks (Obscured and Hidden) are not working properly for players who use Firefox.
They just see the whole map. Exception: If they scroll until all tokens are barely outside the visible field it's working propery, the map gets darkened and you can only see the lighting area around the token.
(GM's view is not affected.)

I played around a bit and found interesting behaviour: Everything works as intended if the player adds a token to the map. But the mask/fog disappears the moment the host adds a token.

Ok, I kind of solved it. When I delete the node
use class="scene-grid" href="#scene-grid"
the mask works perfectly.
I have no idea what this will break, but for me it would be the fix.

Thanks for reporting this, I should be able to test and debug this soon.

@z31t could you point to the file where this line can be found? I know this is an old issue, but still. The bug really bothers me and I hope to be able to host a patched version for me and my friends. TIA!

@vsl-iil I'm sorry that I'm not 100% sure, because I was never able to compile and run the code (There is another issue listet that mentions the problem: Compiling and staring the code just loads a backup and never uses the local code), the tech stack is also not something I'm very familiar with.
My guess is that src/main/ogres/app/component/scene.cljs needs this change (around line 226:

-    ($ :g {:id "scene-grid"}
-      ($ :path
-        {:d "M -100000 -100000 H 100000 V 100000 H -100000"
-         :fill "url(#grid-pattern)"}))))
+    ))

I could just test with browser developer tools and I don't know if this change will break something else. (Please look at my previous comment, maybe you can test in your browser too).
This bug sadly is game breaking and I had to go back to owlbear.rodeo.
But let me know if you are successful!

@z31t Thank you! Funnily enough, I too started using Owlbear Rodeo after discovering this bug, so I'm not sure if I'll ever try to fix it and self-host an instance of Ogres, but hopefully this will be useful for someone more willing to do just that. :]
