Has the KDF Maraudering Officer Bug been Fixed?

Back sometime ago, a year or two, I noticed that the Maraudering officer reward could not be customized. Disappointed I never claimed it on my main characters.
I am wondering has it been fixed? Also does the Android officer work with customization?
I only ask as I have not claimed either yet and I don't want to unless I can change their appearances and uniforms.

The Android BOFF is fully customizable (+ added face circuitry) like any normal officer since... well... you have to pay for it
I would genuinely love to know how the second poster did it, because none of my marauding human boffs will change... blonde clones everywhere!

The only simple thing I can think of that let me make and save changes was the fact that the character (through whatever wonk coding) had at least one other clothing option to select beyond the default: the Mining outfit from the Fleet Mine holding. This outfit was all I could select from the pull-downs for shirt, pants, feet, etc.; and they stayed when selected. That's when I segued over to the head and body options to move around slders/options which also "took" when changed. Of course the big moment was hitting the purchase button and not getting that error message.
I have a lot of the "obscure" clothing unlocked for my Orion (in KDF-land at least): vet, bortas, dyson, mining, korath, time traveller, academy... list goes on. Some early accessories I bought for my Fed character have always appeared for the Orion or her crew, like certain earrings or Seven's borg parts (Orion was made fall of '10-ish I think).
Anyway, what I'm getting at she's a mess at the tailor. I have the somewhat common issue of slots where I can't change anything; and lately, when I do buy new slots they never show and I have to submit a GM ticket to "open" them (~18 slots, nowhere near the max from what I've read). It could be I stumbled upon a mishmash of code that let me make changes to the Marauding reward BOFF, for humans at least. If it is a compounding issue of all the stuff I've bought or unlocked that finally let me make changes to the BOFF... well, I can't unravel that mess.
However, my gut (where klingons like to think from) tells me it was getting the Mining outfit.
(But that outfit has been out awhile... so I could be totally wrong)
Thanks for letting me know that the Android works at least.
I guess we will have to continually complain about it being broken and hope for once our requests won't fall on deaf ears. I know that's a big assumption.
Very true and very sad. Happy customers often spend more money, but they often don't care or don't find it worth their time. Seriously Defera which is cross-factional is rather bugged and after all this time it hasn't been fixed. It's a shame as instead of cleaning up their mess they just release more bugged and broken content. Re-vamping early Federation missions really isn't as important as bug fixing a lot of these years old bugs.
Maybe we all should start spamming their ticket and bug report feature in-game. They might fix it to shut us up. lol It's a legit problem so they can't ban us for reporting issues with the game.
I have managed to replicate this on Tribble and, interestingly, it does appear to be the Miner outfit - the same alt has the Korath unlocked and that doesn't appear. But yes, i can edit the Marauder's appearance.
I'm all for spaming them with tickets until this gets fixed, actually I'll go submit one now.
There is an NPC in the same room as the skill trainer that gives 1 boff to people that have t4 marauding complete. Be careful as you can only choose one and can't take it back.
Or, what kind of spaghetti code is behind the outfits?

There is no spaghetti code.
It's called "laziness."
Reporting those bugs. Repeatedly if necesary. Discussing them and pointing them out here on the forums. Consistenlty complaining about them here in hope it gets noticed and eventually fixed. Reporting particular bugs in their apropriate subforum can get the atention of the dev. responsible for that area.
We also have >THIS THREAD< created in order to complile all issues troubling the KDF players on one place so the devs. can have direct insight, although it hasn't been updated in a while.
Basically the same we've been doing so far.
