A Bug?
[Quote from original post: I play on the tribunal and informed a guide about the presence of this bug and was told they are investigating the problem. The bug is as follows, Normally i as a cleric could cast invis vs undead on myself and them have REGULAr invis cast upon and they would stack just fine. Since the last patch the msg "You are allready invisible" is given when attempting this. Could you please give an update so we know if this bug has even made it too the right people and when it might be completed. Thank You Much]
It's not a bug. No class (except for rogues) can be invisible to both living and undead regardless of spells or abilities. So even though the spells would appear to stack, the recipient of the spell would only be under the affect of one spell.
A few weeks ago, I asked the coder to make the spells unstackable so that they didn't give the impression that being invisible to both is possible.

Next comment also from Gordon on 10/6/2000. Not as concrete as above, just more speaking to the intention of not allowing this to happen:

Invisbility and the Undead
[Quote from original post: I thought I once read a post by you stating that no class had both forms of invisibility becuase that would be too powerfull and would make travel anywhere too easy. ]
The rogue is the only class that has the ability to be invisible to both the undead and living at the same time. The other classes that have both spells cannot have them both up at the same time.
