I have a (unfinished - yeah...) demo for GreydotKilla, which does exactly both - it first recognises the HMOS VIC and if found it says "If you see the dots, you can shoot them down now"

If you don't see them - well - you'll be shooting in the dark :-)

But still

a) this is the opposite: the goal is to make them diesappear so if they're not there for any reason then goal achieved. The same doesn't work so well the other way around i. e. when you want the snow to start falling ;-0

b) even if they are visible, they may fade away with temperature already after the user answered "yes"
