Any way to modify Hide in Shadows skill?

[SparrowJacek]

Hello,

Do you know if there's any way to modify/add effects/change behavior of Hide in Shadows? I found this topic 

 and it seems that the .SPL is hardcoded, but is there anything that can be changed? 

Best regards

I can tell you that the "spell" of Hide in Shadows is probably a 0-level one, it is probably from the NONE school and it probably uses projectile 0. I know these things for a fact for Turn Undead. You can try to use these properties, but reflecting, blocking and so on 0-level spells also gets in the way of other hard-coded mechanics. For example, reflecting Turn Undead back on the priest can make him controlled by the undead or blown to bits (but not routed, likely because that part of the mechanic uses the "Retreat" effect, 110, which does not work externally but may internally), however, it also makes the undead unkillable while it lasts, because the damage mechanism also uses something from the 0th level.
