Default [IMPLEMENTED][Visual] Hand of Midas


I was experimenting with dota today and found Hand of Midas' gold display to be really annoying so i decided suggest a solution for it.

I checked the forums and found that while there are many requests to fix it, there are not any good implementations.

After some testing i found a pretty simple solution to it:
If you move the transmuted unit when its life reaches 0 then the transmute gold will stay in place, while the bounty gold will appear wherever you move it.

So here it is, a testmap.

Pros:
Actually readable gold text

Cons:
bounty gold special effect is slightly offset where it should be

^ Try to use ss since not everyone has time to open the testmap.

OMG, readable HoM.

I love it. Please implement 6.68. I would love to know how much money I make even if I almost never get this item.
