So this might be difficult to explain... but me and a buddy are working on a stealth map, and he has patrolling detectors. We're kinda aiming for a Metal Gear Solid style of gameplay. The annoying part after playtesting the map a few times is that the patrolling guys can see you and come after you even if their backs are turned to you (due to the nature of the detection ability). The player's unit is cloaked, by the way.
What my idea is is for the sight of the patrols, or the shape of the detection, to be a cone shape in front of the unit, as described in the picture here:
In this example, the patrols are red dots, and the colored cones are their sight. Would it be possible to make the sight shape or detected-area shape similar to this?
