In the centre of my map, there is a section where lines aren't blocking light? And shadows are being cast even though the map contains no light sources? Lines are definitely on the dynamic layer, the map is just a jpeg nothing fancy. Haven't even added any tokens yet.

Could you post some pictures of the lighting as well as the light settings for the page? It sounds like you are using Updated Dynamic Lighting, which is still in active development. You probably want to stick with Legacy Dynamic Lighting until it is retired.

How do you know the lines aren't blocking light if you don't have any tokens on the map yet?  How are you testing this?

I dropped a character token on so I could use “control L” to confirm site lines etc.

What is your zoom level?  I don't know when it starts being a problem, but some people have mentioned having some lines misbehave once you have zoomed out on the map.  If your zoom is at the normal 100%, I have no idea.

Tried switching to the safari browser (I"m on Mac) checked zoom level (I'm on 100%) same issue, any ideas? I'm running a game tomorrow night and don't want my players to be able to see through walls.

Firefox and Chrome are the only officially supported browsers.  It may work on others, but those 2 are the only ones they specifically try to keep up with on compatibility. The only other thing I could suggest is don't run the UDL.  Run the legacy lighting system instead.
