I want to do LoS in a cone style similar to what they did in Commandos but I'm not sure how to do that yet, nor am I sure how to let the players know what is in a specific unit's LoS.
You should be able to use a "search area" effect. I keep duplicating the mothership's cloak field. By narrowing the radius on that, it should be the first step in what you're trying to accomplish.
As for displaying the cone, there's an event in actors for "selected", you may be able to use that to draw the "flashlight".
A random little idea passed through my head of the team being assigned to a Zerg base on one of the missions, and the spy mentioning something about sneaking around being difficult, and the scientist says "Well, we did capture this.", pulling back a curtain to reveal a changeling on a slab, and the spy going into a fit about having to wear it.
Anyway, I could help some with triggers or data if you get stumped. I'm not really up for being part of the team, but I'll help where I can, maybe work out a puzzle or two for you if you need.
