Your hiders, like the original, suffer from the fact that the effects are applied to the player, so when they hide, the effects and text hide with them. As a GM, you can't see this, but anyone with privledges lower than yours will notice this problem...and since this script is all about "image" ...it kinda defeats the purpose if your players can't see the effects.

I am not a very good scripter (mediocre at best) but you should check out the "GMHidingStone" script that was posted here not long ago. It uses another method for the effects, and as a result, avoids the problems that are prevalent in all the other hiding scripts I've seen.

Overall, great idea!
Thanks for pointing that out to me, I didn't really think of that. But it's fixed and also a few things were added: Effect Duration and Effect Render Mode.

I hope it's better!
