I just wanted to seek clarification a situation that came up in a game last night, and now that I have the rulebook in hand I think we may have played it wrong.
Nino is standing on a Ht3 building, but he is 2.5 inches from the edge. By my reading of the Vantage point rules today, he is unable to shoot anybody on the ground on that facing of the building, even if they are a long way away and look reasonable as targets, because *every* diagonal downwards line (measured from his base) intersects the building's roof instantly, and since he is more than his height away from the edge, he isn't allowed to ignore the floor he's standing on for purpose of shooting.
I'm happy(ish) with the abstraction, but wanted to make sure I understand it properly. Is this correct?

Hi all,
