The Kate Landon Appeal

[dtpsprt]

OK... since Egosoft seems to have run out of resources it is time for the community to step in!!!

The issue at hand is Kate Landon, Dal Busta's assistant, who for no apparent reason has lost the back half of her hair in V4.10!!!
For this reason I propose a user's donation of 0.001 cent each to buy a wig for the poor NPC that is as helpful as NPC's go and then some...

P.S. No dear moderators and other Egosoft, stuff this is not a post for the Beta Forum since the notice have been given to the devs since Beta 4.10 started and now we are in Beta 4.10 4 and nothing so far...

Funnily enough our artists don't immediately drop the important work they are doing to fix NPC haircuts. And yes, they can be busy on that important work for several beta versions in a row.

Funnily enough there is an active beta thread on this more general issue area and with an issue tracking number too (ie, 'nothing so far' is not quite the case).

There are a few more plot NPCs that have the same issue, already reported though.

It's not hidden and the way I see it it's a wider problem. By the way the next 3 beta versions included 4 unnecessary Inconveniances and one, somewhat, good one as far as graphics are concerned. Maybe a "haircut" session would pay more than bad addititons...

Isn't it the very purpose of the beta to identify new issues before the official patch release???

Indeed. It's just that, in my book, first of all you don't dare touch things that work OK in the first place. Then, failing that or that being impossible, you go over and fix what's broken and then continue with the improvements.

To be honest, as much as I have searched in the site, I have not come upon one complaint about the opacity of the player's ship stats (been there from the get go of the Beta) that actually interferes with issuing commands for the ship itself just to name one and If I am the only one who has trouble/complains about it then let it be...

Need to also offer funds to get a npc i found that had green hair, to buy some hair dye to go back to black or blonde hair as green is a uncool hair colour.
