Summary

When a player uses Shadow Bombs, and then respawns, they are left permanently invisible. They can still use items, and eliminate other players while in this state.

Shadow floppers are not affected in the same way.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Be in a Creative map with shadow bombs
  2. Use shadow bomb
  3. Respawn from pause
  4. Observe being invisible after respawning

Expected Result

If respawning while shadow bomb effect is active, player returns to normal state.

Observed Result

If respawning while shadow bomb effect is active, player becomes invisible

Platform(s)

Any

Additional Notes

I imagine when shadow bomb goes off, it makes the standard player invisible, and adds the ghost-like visuals. When they respawn, it is removing the ghost-like visuals, but failing to make the player visible again.

Using another shadow bomb makes the player visible once again
