Monster detection (vision)
Monster detection is a form of vision property that appears in dNetHack, notdNetHack and notnotdNetHack, and functions somewhat similarly to the monster detection property.
Description
A hero or monster that has innate monster detection as part of their vision can see any monster within their line of sight, which can be fooled by invisibility unless they can also see invisible—this form of vision does not reveal the type of square that each monster currently occupies, though this is only relevant for a hero that obtains monster detection by polymorphing into any monster with innate monster detection.
A hero or monster that has omni-sense along with this innate monster detection can effectively see any monster on their current level that they would be able to see normally.
