Summary0001534: Make Terminator sphere and similar items not turn invisible when above a player who picks up invisibilty
DescriptionAs it is, it gives the Terminator a considerable advantage on maps that feature the invisibility or partial invisibility spheres. It would be far better if the invisibility did not apply to the floating sphere icon.

 Corrected a typo in the description.

 This also affects the teammate indicator above player's heads. Not very helpful that way.

 What's the use of taking an invis sphere then? You'll have a big sphere over your head giving your position away.
Item control is a legit tactic, be there quicker when the invis spawns.

 Because in conjunction with the Terminator sphere you have retarded high firepower? With invisibility?

 I don't think this should be changed. If the blursphere and invisibility spheres are such an annoyance you can create a small DECORATE file to remove them by replacing them with empty actors. If this behavior should be changed in the engine you're going to need a lot of community support, that's for sure.

 I don't have a problem with the Blursphere, I just think that in combination with the Terminator sphere it's very very ridiculous. Doesn't address the teammate icon point either

 This change would completely change the balance of the item. If you don't want the terminator to be affected by the invisibility sphere, replace the sphere with DECORATE and make the new actor only apply the invisibility if the player is not the terminator. This is certainly a job for a mod and shouldn't be done by default by the engine.

Regarding the ally icon, this is an inherent drawback of invisibility. Your enemies don't see you, but your allies don't see you either.

 Should probably close it then.
