True Sight and Fogged Unit

Sorry for misleading title, i meant Fogged Building.
I have a hide and seek map, where the player hiding have an unit with windwalk and also a permanently invisible building (that can cast invisibility too), so i put a Gem of true sight in the map for the seeker to counter the invisible hider and buildings.
Now comes the problem, Gem of True sight can also see building through trees and walls, making the hider will be easily found and killed, so i googled a bit but didn't find any good result.
I tried:
-Using other items, incase it only bugs with the Gem of True Sight, dont work
-Every true sight ability (including Sentry ward's Detection), all can see buildings through tree and walls
-Replaced the Stats-Allowed Target, i even tried "None" and not ticking anything at all, but the true sight (both to hidden building and invis unit) still reveal it, so i guess Stats-Allowed Target don't work at all.
Are there any idea how to make True Sight to see only invisible unit and not buildings inside/behind forest or walls?
I have other idea of making Amulet of Visibility, where all unit within range will have it's invisibility removed instantly, but the building will be invisible again if out of range(like normal truesight) making me confused on how to trigger it

You didn't forget something like "shared vision" or a trigger which reveals units?

I forgot to say that i tried all three in a new map, so no triggers or new object at all, only a custom item and truesight modified by my 2 attempts. the testing invisible unit is shade, if that matter.

Have you tried to set "Detector (Sentry Ward)"'s (The ability Gem of True Sight use) target allowed to organic?

Yes, i tried only "Organic", only "None", does not tick anything , all three dont work.
I just tried to change Data-Detection Type to None some seconds ago and this is the thing happened, seems like the reveal-building is hardcoded and can't be modified? (There are shades inside the ring of tree btw)

Question. Can you see the building as shown in the picture even without the Gem of True Seeing?

At first (without gem), the farms can't be seen in any way (except destroying the tree of course), and then when picking up the gem, all the farms will be seen like that (fogged), and i will still see the buildings even if i dropped the gem.
(that is how war3 work right? see a building and it will be there forever until i see it destroyed)

Just to clarify, your problem is that when the Seeker has some form of Truesight, that invisible buildings will show up through walls, trees, fog of war, etc. and once found are permanently displayed there until destroyed?

The solution to that is to go to each building you have and under Stats - Is a Building change that to false. This will make it so that you have to have line of sight to the buildings to reveal them and they will not show up if you cannot see them anymore (like units). If you would like some way to easily distinguish buildings from units, I would suggest playing around with Stats - Unit Classification to separate them.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
