Visual โ Radar and glyph
Inside are the Glyph and Radar sections.
How to enableโ

Insert) โ Visual โ Radar and glyph. - The script is on by default. It is turned on and off with the header toggle of the page.
- The Glyph and Radar sections are turned on separately with the toggles in their headers (both are on by default).
What it doesโ
Cooldown next to the minimap
- Next to the scan button by the minimap, the remaining cooldown of the enemy scan (min:sec) and its number of charges are shown.
- Next to the glyph button โ the remaining cooldown of the enemy glyph.
- While there is no cooldown, the timer is hidden.
Radar (scan) in the world
- A circle with a radius of 900 is drawn at the scan location: red โ enemy scan, green โ allied scan.
- Above the scan location โ a plate with the icon of the hero who scanned and the remaining scan time.
- For an enemy scan, a marker also appears on the minimap for the duration of the scan.
- "Team" sets whose scans get the timer plate. The circle on the ground is drawn for both teams' scans while the Radar section is on.
Glyph in the world
- The remaining glyph time is shown above buildings and creeps affected by the glyph.
- With "Group nearby" (on by default), creeps standing closer than "Group radius" are shown with one plate with the longest remaining time. Without grouping, the number hangs above each creep. Buildings are not grouped: each building has its own plate right above it, even when a creep wave stands next to it.
- Which units to include is set by the Forts, Towers, Creeps, Barracks toggles.
The script draws nothing outside a match or after it ends.

FAQโ
I don't see the enemy glyph / scan cooldown. The timer appears next to the glyph and scan buttons by the minimap only while the enemy's cooldown is running. Check "Glyph cooldown" and "Radar cooldown" on the main page.
Every creep has its own glyph number, it's distracting. Turn on "Group nearby" and increase "Group radius" if needed.
How do I show only enemy scans? In the Radar section, keep only "Enemies" in "Team": the timer plate will remain only above enemy scans. The green circle of an allied scan is still drawn.
