Description:
--------------------
_NPCScan.Overlay is an addition to _NPCScan that adds map overlays for rare mob patrols. When you search for a rare in _NPCScan, _NPCScan.Overlay will show where it patrols until you find it. It works similarly to keithgabryelski's Rare Spawn Overlay, but supports the minimap and has a much smaller download size, along with a few new features.
Special thanks to Rare Spawn Overlay's patrol paths and Routes' minimap drawing code for inspiration!
Note: _NPCScan.Overlay can integrate with _NPCScan if you have installed it, but make sure to keep both up to date if you do use both!

World Map
In addition to drawing paths on the World Map, _NPCScan.Overlay adds a key to a corner of the window with each rare's name. It only appears in zones that have rare maps, like Netherstorm as seen in the screenshot. If you need to read something under the key, just move your mouse over top of it and the key will jump to a different corner.
Most map mods like Atlas will inherit the key and overlays from this module. Even Carbonite's map display will show them.
Battlefield Minimap
The small Battlefield Minimap (AKA the Zone Map) also shows mob paths.
Minimap
All shapes and sizes of minimaps are supported. Rotating minimaps work fine as well.
Also shown in the minimap's screenshot is the found range ring highlighting where Dirkee probably was when the alert went off. That is, D...
