Shields in off-hand on Nintendo Switch cause visual issues on split screen multiplayer.
Screen shot attached.Issue 1: (minor) Shield is not held properly by player 1 (the one who created the world), but otherwise seems to work fine.
Issue 2: (major) When player 1 looks in the direction of player 2, the shield of player 2 blocks half of the screen. When player 1 looks in any other direction, their shield functions normally.
The second issue makes it nearly impossible to properly play the game while using a shield when in split screen multiplayer.
How to reproduce:
1. Create new world on nintendo switch, turn "Multiplayer" off, to allow split screen multiplayer.
2. Have the second player join the world on the same device, screen divides into vertical split screen with player 1 on the left side of the screen, player 2 on the right.
3. Have both players equip a shield in their off-hand
4. As player 1, look into the direction of player 2, the shield of player 2 will block the right side of their screen and will continue to do so as long as player 1 is looking in their direction, no matter from how far away.

Shield blocks half of the screen on split screen multiplayeron Nintendo SwitchShield blocks half of the screen on split screen multiplayer.
Hadn't seen that one, thank you very much!!
The blocking of half the screen for player 2 in split screen has been happening to me too for a while now (on Nintendo Switch)
It might be useful to know that it seems to happen only when player 1 is looking in the direction of player 2, no matter how far away the players are from each other. When player 1 is looking elsewhere, the shield appears to function normally.
