I was thinking about making a stealth map/mod and I was wondering:
1. Is it possible to detect if you're in a shadow without placing a location on every shadow or units in everyshadow?
2. Would it be better if it came with a mod?

EDIT:
I was also wondering if it's possible to make a unit cloak when standing still or in shadows without using an arbiter.

Modded maps! I think the last question is possible with iscripting, but I'm not sure. Detecting when a unit is in a shadow is just about impossible.

SCMLoader FTW!

That's what I thought... Uh... how do you cloak units when they stand still? I was looking through the opcodes and i didn't seen anything. Is cloaking an overlay?

You'd better go post this in modding assistance. I really no nothing about iscripting. I just meant if it was possible, iscript would be the place you could find it in.

Use micro scan to find the coordinates of your unit, then check them against the coordinates of the shadows to detect if you are in them.

Cloaking isnt possible without a mod (or arbiter) though.
