Is invsibility bugged, or am I missing something?

[MrH99]

I play a lot of Octavia, and I'm having an issue where sometimes instead of going invis I just get a glow around my character, or I won't get either so I can't tell if I'm invisible or not, and then sometimes it works perfectly where my character is faded out like it should be. Am I missing a mechanic/option, or is it currently bugged?

When it works:

When it doesn't:

New mechanic to choose what kind of invisibility you want: transparent or semi-transparent.

Arsenal under appearance -> Attachments -> Auxiliary -> Attachments

Yeah I have that enabled on the semi transparent setting, but that's not what I mean. Sometimes it'll work perfectly and put me invisible, but other times it'll just put a glow around my character while I'm completely visible, so it doesn't look like I'm in stealth at all.

I'm thinking this as I'm going along and not tested, but I think there might be a weird interaction if you have other players that gives invisibility. Only frames with innate invisibility have the option to do this, so the other players might be subjected to the source's option.

If not this then, yeah, it's a bug.

They simply moved things in the code and this happened.

This same thing happened when they launched Ivara.

It seems to be a bug for clients since it only happens when you're not the host. Every time I'm the host, it works perfectly at all times, but when I'm not the host, sometimes it doesn't work and I get the Glow-Cloak instead of the Semi-Cloak.

This makes sense, as I've noticed it either works for an entire mission, or doesn't, it never flip-flops during a mission. Plus, you can see I am the host when it's working, and I'm not the host when it's not.
