Summary of bug here.

# Steps to Reproduce

If attached to Condo IO and set to hide, only the Birb spawn icon will be hidden.

# What I expected to happen

The Birb NPC should despawn as well if the item is set to hidden.

Currently, I am reworking how these items handle those actions. The bird is a separate item that gets spawned and I have to reroute all the changes the spawner is getting to the bird. It’s high on my list.
