Dynamic Lighting query

I’m playing Sunless Citadel and it comes with Dynamic Lighting preset. On the DM view (ctrl L) it shows it as it should be: only the room the PCs are in lit up - no light leaking beyond the walls. However the PCs view is different: light is leaking beyond the walls so rather spoiling any surprises to come. Also, I’ve got the movement on so they can’t walk through walls. This doesn’t work either. Any suggestions? Cheers 👍

How are you testing the PC view? Also, are you using Explorer mode? If you have previously moved a token into an area, it will retain a dimmed, token-less view of that area.
My PC sent me a screen capture of what they can see. Wish I could post photos to show it. Explorer mode is switched off. Cheers.

If you save the image first, you can post here using the button with the picture on it to the right of the link icon in the forum toolbar. Just pasting to the forum doesn't work.

As you can see my PC can see beyond the walls even though it’s set up not to do so.
We'd also need to see the page settings for Dynamic Lighting and what the Dynamic Lighting layer looks like to see if there's something incorrectly set up.   Assuming it is correctly set up and there's a bug or something (like the DL layer items got accidentally deleted), have you tried creating a fresh game with the module to see if the issue persists? If you'd like to invite me to the game I could take a look at the settings as well.
I set up a dummy account, created a new character and dynamic lighting is working fine for that. Haven’t had chance to check the players PC yet but the dynamic lighting setup is identical. Will probably get a chance to test it tomorrow.
