X-Ray vision type...possible?

Post by xavram »

Is there any way to define a vision type as something that ignores VBL? Like an X-Ray vision? I'm guessing "no" but thought I would ask.

well as in most cases with mt its rarely a matter of 'not possible' but more of a matter of 'well...yes...but not how you probably envisioned it'.

So: no AFAIK there is no vision type that looks through VBL
BUT there is a way to fake it with a macro. Simply turn of the VBL, clear FoW for specific token, probably let the player look at the map for a while and then turn VBL back on. Not ideal, but the best which is so far possible.
