Description
==========
for some reason i became invisible to players when i entered the map of bendir dale (earthkin village) with my character Adelaide Cuddlebunnies. no one could see me or read my dialogue lines, i had no spells cast on me bedides a true seeing spell. i was on detect mode a,d sat in the town area for about 20 minutes. other players were there but no one could see me at all, when i used Shout they could read me but still not see me.

Steps to reproduce
----------------------------
absolutely no idea

Expected result
-----------------------
walk in town and have some RP

Actual result
-------------------
a trraumatized character now convinced that brandobaris hates her

Screenshot(s)
--------------------
no screens sorry. time was about Y 173 M 2 D 5 H 9 or 10, not sure.

Notes
---------
it happened to me already another time, in bendir again, can't really say when but it was about 7 to 10 days ago

No idea on this one, unless the crowd is playing a practical joke on you. If it had happened only once I'd call it a gremlin and close the thread. Has it ever happened playing other characters?

I can PM you a video I recorded, in which myself and another player experienced this. We also succeeded in forcing it to happen.

I've had this happen to me a good few times, and I've had it happen to at least five other people I play regularly with.
I have no idea what causes it, but running far away out of render distance and back in seems to fix it. Sometimes.

aaaaaaaaaaaa

God. This might be a Beamdog bug. Can't decide if that's better or worse. I'm gonna check out what's open on their issues tracker and any other leads. No promises on ETA for this but I'll see what I can turn up. Thanks for the evidence and reproduction of the issue, was very thorough!
