This issue is still present in night time missions.

Edit: another issue seen in the image is that the UFO hull is revealed too early in night missions. No one sees the UFO but it's still visible.

Do you have the save so we can give this a check? Will also need it to check which polar biome map this was (and what UFO type).

For the ufo being seen in shroud, this is most likely because the top part of the ufo entered a soldier's LOS. Looks like this is one of the ufo types that goes up to 3 levels high, while the pine trees are only 2 levels high, so it's not perfectly blocking said ufo. Will need a save though to verify if this is a case or if we have an actual bug

EDIT: Need the save specifically for the ufo (the water one is easy to reproduce)

Sorry, no save for this.

Ufo is 1 leveled (scout) so it's not that. It seemed the hull reveals itself with day rules and I've seen this issue quite a lot in night missions so I can send you a save next time I see it.

@Skitso Could you post using the bug reporter zip? I've added several logs on this so I can scan back what position triggered the reveal.
Once you see it happen can you press F11?

It's fine - we've now found the bug for night missions. Please report it again if you see it for day missions, but the night missions should be fixed in Milestone 6.
