Testing Erebus v1.2 Crabby_Spider and I discovered a weird bug. The entire map was revealed to both of us (fog was lifted) about 10-15 min into the game, but no triggers to do that exist in the map. They were removed a while ago. The only changes made were the introduction of a folder of triggers from a test map we're working on. We couldn't find anything that could have caused this.
In gameplay constants the creep guard distance, return distance, and return time to 99999.
There are no visibility modifiers in the game.
Is the map bugged? What causes this?

Edit:
Looking around the forum, I noticed that Selection events cause wierd errors. We do have a trigger with selection events in the map.
Edit 2:
We were playing on a LAN, if that means anything.
Edit 3:
There were 9 AI players in the game. (They can't do anything, used only to ensure random starting location) About 10 min into the game they should be defeated due to all of their units' timers running out [dummy units used to prevent a defeat glitch is removed via trigger]. Upon doing this, they enter cinematic mode (granting vision of entire map). Erebus is a FFA, so no shared vision. As far as I know, you can't do anything with your unts in cinematic mode even if Letterbox mode is turned off, and we were. They were not Defeated.
