Possible Object of Obsession change

I thought about 3 possible changes to make OoO more fair and less abusable by SWF:

1- The perk only activates if the killer is also looking at you.

or

2- When the OoO player is looking at the killer when he is not looking at him, the killer receives a directional cue, like Ghostface when someone is looking at him stealthed.

or (this one is crazier but sounds fun)

3- The killer can't see your aura if you look at him, but whenever a generator is completed, you get the exposed effect and your aura is visible to the killer for 25 seconds.

    I like the 1) first idea the most.

    3) Can almost certainly never work. You need to take into account that the killer needs to reach you which takes some time, and you can just run away into the opposite direction from the killer as soon as a gen pops. The duration would have to be longer but then the perk becomes super garbage. It also still causes problems for stealth killers and SWF can still abuse it hardcore

    2) Has a similar problem, stealth killers still can't do anything about it and SWF can still abuse it

    1) Is probably fine but also not particularly interesting. You are kind of giving the killer an additional perk that reveals you, would probably not be run anymore by anyone

    The easiest and most balanced change is just to make it so that when stealth killers are using their stealth ability, they cannot be tracked by OoO. Spirit already has this, why not everyone else.

    Object isn't healthy for the game in it's current state. Makes it impossible to design stealth killers. Don't know why BHVR hasn't tackled this perk before but now is a good a time as any.

    Or they can make object of obsession as a button press ability (CTRL).
