Oh! If you're making a new build, it would also be good to do something (up to you what) about the ambiguity of "the closest witness to X is Y".

Usually, it's straightforward to tell if this is a lie; but sometimes the question of "how is a diagonal measured" affects the answer.
I think I had something like:

   _W2_
W1_C

Witness 1 is clearly 2 spaces away from the count; but witness 2 is either 1 space, sqrt(2) spaces, or 2 spaces, depending on how you are measuring distance in the grid system.

Duly noted. For now the distance is measured by the Manhattan Distance which simply counts the cardinal steps it takes to reach a place. I can see how that can be confusing given the general adjacency rule counts diagonal tiles as neighbors.
