[v1.26f2] Canyon Combat

Is this correct as intended by design? Canyons have no effect on combat, only on movement.

Indeed, -75%. I wonder, though, if they are coded into the game based on the image above. I'll try to set up an experiment to try it.

I set up some contrived combats across canyons and dug through the combat details. I never noticed a hexside penalty for the canyon like I do for combats across other hexside types.

It seems you are completely right. Quite an oversight on my part. Apologies. Fixing this for next subversion asap.

I'd recommend looking at the application of escarpment combat modifiers too - it's more difficult to tell, but it may also be problematic. I think it may only be partially implemented and only for the overall defender when counter-attacking.
