Hall of Mirrors?

[Lord Bayushi]

What does it do? There is no information on it's purpose anywhere in the Mod that I can find. It has requirements and a cost, it puts a building in the city that yields no visible effects, and even the Sid's Tips say nothing about it's purpose. What am I missing?

"Hall of Mirrors building creates illusions of attackers"

Haven't tried this out myself yet.

I believe that the building provides +1 , but it has a far more important effect: when an enemy unit comes within a tile of the city, it creates a duplicate of this unit under your control. the duplicate will have the illusion promotion (will look transparent, ignores non-living units) and a duration limited to 3 turns. It will only duplicate one unit per turn.

For some reason it generates a random number between 0 and 100 and then only works if the number is less than or equal to 100 (i.e., always). I think it used to be a random thing, and the team either decided it should be permanent but didn't want to change too much code, or they were only doing it for testing purposes and forgot to change it back.

Check my Sig 'Civ & Unit Info'

Hall of Mirrors can create duplicate images of enemy units in neighboring tiles
