I've run into a bug when equipping Bairdotre I select the item and the equipment palette that pops up is mangled. It displays parts of Bairdotr's inventory randomly but the names and stats are mismatched with the image being displayed. For instance clicking on her helmet causes the backpack, scrolls, and other items to be displayed. Some items displayed may or may not be in her inventory.
Mousing over them also shows the wrong text, including item text over blank spaces. I think the text may be showing what she is already equipped with.
I can still work around this by equipping from the inventory screen; the game will properly swap out the right items. So far it only affects Bairdotr. This happened after I recruited her back into the party when visiting the Hall of Heroes. I haven't yet tried recruiting Wolgraff back in nor a generic NPC.
So:
- Latest Steam version on PC. - Improper display of equipment icons. - Improper display of equipment text for those icons. - Equipment text may be limited to items already equipped; can't say conclusively. - Equipping by inventory menu still works. - Affects no other character so far. - Could affect Wolgraff or generic NPCs but haven't checked yet.
Is this a known behavior?
Edit: the behavior disappeared rebooting the game.
I have confirmed now that the behavior is reproducible. It only happens when you have switched a party member at the Hall of Heroes. The behavior clears up once you restart the game. I have have not checked whether saving and loading also solves the problem.
