[758] Lens of Truth and layers (part 2)

Different bug, different thread!

Notice that the Lens doesn't display secrets on the layer. This is no problem at all, except that it looks really weird:

By no means does this have to be fixed if it's too difficult. Again, this is in Link to the Heavens.

The upper part of the Link statue is on layer 5, I believe. It would still look like that on layer 3, 4, or 6. I'm not sure if it does that on layer 1 or 2. The point is that the Lens of Truth isn't displaying what would happen after triggering the secrets on a layer, if that makes any sense to you or not.

Ahh, I get it. The statue was 2x3 before the secrets are triggered, and the entire statue is to disappear.

Sorry, it wasn't that obvious. Particularly since people are starting to build statues that don't have a base, and their feet just stand on the ground.

Ooh, but it would be wise to do so... I first had this too. I made a bunch of secrets on layer 1 but they didn't display on the Lens. It would be very useful and fix some visual bugs like Pineconn pointed out.
