BRIDGE OFFICER CUSTOMIZATION

ipmonitor

this has been going on for over a month now. the bridge officer customization is really messed up and you cant do even the basic things. for example i get a new bridge officer. i costume him and one of my existing bridge officers gets renamed to the one i am customizing with actual name in brackets but gets the default costume. this is all factions. anyone else having this problem and when will this get fixed as i cannot costume anyone without it messing up other older bridge officers,

also note the main customization screen is glitchy and always seems like is flipping players around especially if you scroll down.

I found out and explained on another page, It is only certain bridge officers.
I tried to come up with reason why certain people would dissapear and was unable to find one.
I posted to a 2nd thread what i tried and what i found.
The bridge officers that blink out are the only ones you CANT change.
Everyone else you can still change.
Also making them part of your away team DOES NOT seem to fix the issue at hand.
I went thru 7 people and each 7 had different people blink out and sometimes it was 2 that blinked out.
I have crews with all the same species, some with holograms, some with androids, and each test was inconclusive as to what was triggering this.

To make the BOFF editable, you have to put them on your away team, then leave the main character as though you're going to change characters and come back in. After that, any changes made in the tailor will stick.

This is what I've noticed so far.

In the Tailor window for BOFFs, the list will blink. Only your original BOFFs (the ones that were awarded as part of the tutorial missions.) stay steady. Everyone else blinks out as though the page reset. If you scroll to the bottom, when the blink happens, it automatically scrolls back to the top.

You can't save an outfit/body/head change unless said BOFF is a member of the away team. And for this to work, you have to effectively put them on the away team, log that main character out then bring them back on.

It doesn't matter the faction, or the species. This appears to work the same for all.

I will not do this to edit characters, when I edit characters I normally edit all of them, so I am to go in and out to edit characters each and every time. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE AS A SOLUTION TOO TIME CONSUMING!
I am forced to leave them as is till they get around to fixing this permanently.
