Morph config file problems on server?

[Tsunari]

{
    "Bat": {
        "abilities": ["fly", "water_breath", "night_vision"],
        "action": "teleport",
        "health": 20,
        "hostile": true
    }
}

Even though I added this to my server and client-side morph config file of the metamorph mod and killed a new bat in my server I can't use the abilities I set.
