REQUIRES ZC VERSION 2.55
Wanted a way of passively indicating secrets that's less obtrusive than the Stone of Agony (when you set its values to ones that actually work) yet still effective? Inspired by the Secrets Ring in 7th Quest (currently not on the database, Moosh goes under the bus until he submits it
), this scripted item highlights secret combos when the player approaches them.

Itemclass Name:
Sensor RingsItemclass Description:
Scripted. Draws sparkles over combos that hide secrets. Use CF_SENSORRINGHINT to place arbitary hints, use CF_NOSENSORRING to prevent the Sensor Rings from highlighting combos. Read the Script File for more information.The caveat to this in versions prior to 2.55.2 is that there is a bug fixed in 2.55.2 that causes the ZC editor will crash if you renter the ZInfo dialogue after exiting the it while hovering over a custom entry (itemclass mostly) that has a long description like this one. To avoid this crash, scroll to a shorter custom entry or scroll to a default entry.
