[0.75 Tactical battle] Sometimes not clear in during tactical battles why you can't enter certain squares

from Elemental Forums

First of all I'd like to say that I'm enjoying LH, it's a big improvement from FE but something that does annoy me from time to time is that during tacticle battles it's sometimes unclear why a unit can't enter a certain square.

Take for example this screenshot below. The square right above the selected Hero is inaccessible eventhough it looks excaclty the same as the squares around it.

Confirmed, can lead to some frustrating tactical goofs.

I think it's bugged.  It's always the same tiles, so it's probably a bug in the map.  Like, they forgot to set that tile as traversable. It is pretty annoying.  You think you've got your strategy worked out, but no, that flat, open tile is inaccessible for some unknown reason.

I think most of the new maps have several dead tiles on them, others have tiles that should be blocked but aren't (like the fountain tile in (empire?) city combat). They all just need a polish pass.

Some of the long narrow tactical maps have tiles you can move to... you just need to zoom in a certain amount to "look past" the surrounding trees, hillside or buildings...

Definitely needs a tune-up.  The squares to the black widow's right could not be moved to until I zoomed in the map.

I've noticed a few squares like this on the city maps. It's frustrating as it often prevents lining up spears or axes properly and it seems utterly arbitrary.

Another example, the tile right under my selected hero is  inaccessible

I think I hit the same problem on the same tactical map.  I can't move the selected unit to the tile indicated by the arrow.

This is for .8, but the square in the upper right from the selected unit (between it and the enemy unit - the latter just above the ophidian) was not passable. I could not target the special spear attack through it or move into it, and there is no visible reason why this square should be impassable.
