Is this change going to fix the fact that when I'm TP-ing around with a friend, every time we TP both to a new location we have to wait (again) before we even see eachother, and after that have to wait a while until the skins are non-gray again?
I mentioned this before; one would expect that if you TP somewhere else, that other avatars that you only saw seconds ago are instantly visible.
