Live Client 400.201.0 Istaria Community Manager June 19, 2020
	Client Features: Updated the Monster Window to allow stacking of health bars horizontally or vertically, this depends on the size of the window. Add Tell option to Windows Player List, Player Search, and Group Fixes: Fixed players returning to idle pose when in combat under certain conditions (your character would stand idly but continue attacking as normal). Fixed an issue where players who have very long names (>16 characters) wouldn’t be able to receive chat invites and their names were cut off in chat. A number of issues has been addressed with changing forms (i.e Khutit form, costumes): Fixed an issue where if you change form and then move, other players see your old form running on the spot. It’s no longer possible to move while transforming (so you can’t slide around or fly around like that which was buggy). Fixed an issue where you could in theory get stuck transforming and require a relog. Fixed an issue where if you died while transforming you might not see you died / other players might not see it. Fixed the player character disappearing for a split second when changing forms. Fixed an issue where the player character’s head could disappear if you look around while transforming / wearing a costume. Fixed an issue where if another player wore a costume and turned on the spot when on top of a building, they might visibly fall through the floor and disappear. Fixed some more memory leaks. Fixed falling off objects / teleporting to the surface when in lairs when first logging into Istaria.
