[#3449] 7.50 crew occasionally appear ahead of ship

Post by LameFox »

This does not survive save/load, however it's happened twice now while flying the Erlking from this earlier report: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Eq3FUf ... bf6JD/view

So a little while after that save, I got the Hyperion mission, and I've been flying the Erlking around to scan gates for the quest NPC. Every now and then I see something out ahead of the ship, and zoom in to figure out what it is, only to see a crew member from the ship itself standing as if at a console, sometimes flickering slightly. It's as if they've been projected ~200 metres ahead of the ship, in space. It's possible it happens when they move around and arrive at the consoles, but I can't actually see more than one console from the helm, so I can't be sure on that.

Fairly confident now it is actually when they arrive at the console below and to the right of the helm. You can't really see it but when someone is standing there you can see their head, and the person way out in front of the ship seems aligned with it.

There was a male crewmember standing there earlier, and now that it's happened again, he is gone and the character projected ahead of the ship is female. So I gather that it's likely her arrival triggered this.

update: when the projected crew member eventually vanished, a few seconds later a male crewmember appeared at that console again.
