Summary 0011320: Shapeshifter shown as incorrect monster in monster list.
Description A shapeshifter was in the form of a torpor snail when I first met it. It changed to a shock serpent and then to a seven-headed hydra - however in the monster list it was still displayed as a torpor snail. Note that the shapeshifter was out of my line of sight for the first change but not the second change.

The incorrect monster can be seen in the lower right corner of the screenshot.

Torpor snail --> shock serpent --> hydra (shown) --> ice dragon --> minotaur
all as a "torpor snail" in monster list..

It then changed to a spark wasp and from then on correctly listed.

I saw this again recently. It was with a regular shapeshifter changing out of los from a spiny frog to a hog. This time the first turn the hog shaped shifter appeared it was listed as a "hog", then went back to "spiny frog". I hit it with shock, and then again for one turn only it changed to "hog" before changing back to "spiny frog".

I saw this with Beogh, but that might be unrelated: When an orc is upgraded to an orc warrior, or an orc warrior to a knight, or knight to a warlord, the monster list displays the previous form until the orc leaves line of sight or the orc gets named by Beogh.

I am unable to replicate this. Tested on both localhosted webtiles and tiles. I'm able to trigger shapeshifter changes in fog but it always updates correctly when re-entering LOS.

This is a couple months old. Was there a PR addressing this at some point?

I haven't seen this recently, so yeah I think it might have been inadvertently patched by another commit.
