1.30 BUG Mission Givers, mismatched NPC models

Post by DanielCoffey67 »

VERSION : 1.30 (323986)
PLATFORM : Steam Windows 10
ISSUE : When accepting a mission from a scanned "spark" around a station, it is sometimes possible for the mission giver models to not match between the initial and full briefing screens.

When approaching some scanned "sparks" around stations, I have noticed that sometimes the faces of the NPCs are not matching between the briefing screens. Today I had the audio "Hello? I need help. Can anyone hear me?" as I approached the spark which usually indicates a taxi mission. As I got close enough to decode the signal the audio changed to the "I am taking a great risk transmitting on this frequency" which usually indicates criminal missions.

The first NPC to be displayed was this one. They asked the usual "Do you want the job?"...

When I pressed F to hear the briefing, the expected Taxi mission changed to the Wetwork mission with a different NPC...

I have had this happen a few times back in 1.20 and 1.21 as well as today which was a new playthrough started in 1.30.

I have also today had a DOUBLE red scanned light which are the type to offer station bonuses or blueprints. I got a pair of them stacked one on top of another so I wonder if that is what is happening here?
