What it doesโ
The script tracks all enemy illusions and clones (e.g. Meepo, Vengeful Spirit) and visually marks them on the map while they are alive and visible.
Display modesโ
The Illusions type setting selects one of two modes:
- Default โ illusions are marked with color; regular illusions are additionally marked with an icon or a circle over the model, depending on Draw type. "Strong" illusions (IsStrongIllusion) and clones are tinted semi-transparently, without being hidden.
- Hidden (+FPS) โ regular illusions are hidden client-side (not rendered by the engine), and the script draws a marker (circle or icon) over their position. This reduces GPU load, hence the FPS gain.
The Settings sub-node with marker settings is active only in Hidden (+FPS) mode.
What is drawn in Hidden (+FPS) modeโ
Over the hidden illusion, the script draws a marker in one of two styles (the Draw type setting):
- Circle โ a yellow filled circle with a colored border (player color).
- Images โ the illusion's icon with a colored border.
The size and transparency of the marker are set by the sliders in the Settings sub-node.
Color separationโ
- Illusion โ the marker/glow color for regular illusions. Dark blue by default.
- Clones โ the marker/glow color for clones (Meepo, Vengeful Spirit, and similar). Purple by default.
Glow effectโ
With Glow effect enabled, a glow of the corresponding color is added around the illusion/clone model. This is especially useful for Chaos Knight, whose illusions are hard to tell apart visually.
