When thieves have gone into shadows/invisibility, and they then perform actions such as opening doors or search for traps, some text and audio gets displayed/played:

- leaving shadows (text)
- leaving shadows (sound)

even though they aren't leaving shadows.

The correct in-shadows animation (semi-transparent avatar) do remain until really leaving shadows.

Fix: Stuff like opening doors and searching for traps shouldn't trigger leaving shadows text + audio.

    If I understand you correctly, this is not an issue. Thieves who take an action such as searching for traps or opening a door start to leave the shadows, hence the text and noise. Within a round (6 seconds) they should become visible again, but the notification gives you a chance to react e.g. do a runner or aim for a quick backstab.

    edit, just seen your video clip and you are taking the "do a runner" approach. If you waited until round-end, you would be seen and attacked.
