True sight - VT

Post by Cret » Fri May 18, 2012 2:42 pm

Not sure if its intentional. But as Cret i noticed that when I was in in the dark and cast True sight the little boxes at the the top of the VT did not show any mobs or items. Or myself even though I had clear sight of everything..

Confirmed that True Sight doesn't provide HUD(VT) content as Darkvision does, and it should. (True sight does provide room descriptions, though - it does something along the lines of low-light vision.)

I always see the PC's mannequin in the HUD(VT), though - are you saying you were not seeing that, either?

Truesight has hard spell code, so just adding a darkvision apply to the soft code isn't really the right fix, I think, though I could try doing that. Casters, please help me out, are there other spells that grant you darkvision/low light vision beyond Darkvision itself and True Sight?

Possible soft code fix:
Affect 2 of type normal modifies applies darkvision for 'l*m' rounds
