On a mission to rescue a VIP from an ADVENT vehicle, I found a weird LOS bug.
I used a specialist to hack the truck doors, which unlocked them, and gave me control of the VIP. The doors remain closed.
I then moved the VIP to the corner tile nearest to the extraction point, ready to exit the vehicle next turn. Note the doors are still closed.
When I do so, I gain vision to the other side of the truck - as if the VIP was somehow peeking around the closed doors of the truck.
As a result a pod activates.

Move the VIP to the corner of the truck near the Sectoid. Note that the door is closed. Any tile other than the corner seems to be fine.
This is not the first time I have experienced this very janky LOS from within an ADVENT truck, and it kinda sucks, because they appear as part of many mission objectives - and this can easily cause you to fail a mission.
