    Brief Description:
    I realized once I joined the server today and did /vanish, I wasn't getting my usual effects as I would usually get. Then I asked a Game Admin if they could of possibly been removed and I was provided with the link that they can be toggled on and off. I toggled them all back on using the proper commands and they seemed to work properly as they once did.

    Flames, Explode, Bats, And Smoke all worked in the main world. Although, when I lagged out of an SG game I was in and re-logged back in and did /vanish, I realized that the effects were not working again and that they had to be re-toggled on.


    Instructions:
    1- Log in.
    2- /Vanish and see if the effects work.
    3- Toggle them on if not.
    4- See if they work properly.
    5- Rejoin the server.
    6- Do /vanish.
    7- See if the effects work.

    How many times did you recreate this bug?:

    I recreated it several times to make sure.

    Result:

    The effects keep resetting upon rejoining the server.

    Expected Result:
    The effects should be working once I toggle them on even after rejoining the server or logging off once doing the /vanish command

    Evidence:
    I don't have screenshots because I couldn't figure how they'd be helpful. I could do a recording which would be helpful but I am unsure.

    They reset every time you relog and join the server. They didn't used to do that. I also find it annoying that I have to reapply them each time I join the server.

    Vanish effects have always been reset to their defaults when you relog. The only difference is that recently the defaults for the investigator+ effects was changed from "on" to "off".
