So I noticed that the portrait in the bar takes a snapshot of the character's face whenever you change any of their equipped gear.
The issue is that the camera appears to be in a fixed location, and whenever the character is working, fighting, sleeping, or doing anything besides standing still, the portrait will not update with the character's face but rather with a snapshot of the location where their head should be at the standing position.

The 2nd issue is that whenever the portrait updates, it will update every character's portrait that shares the same name. This issue occurs regardless of which character is "updating their portrait"; it will update every character with the same name. (Yes, it works if your entire squad has the same name)

EDIT: Updated title

+1

I've seen the first issue fix itself, at times. I've experienced the second issue once, and it fixed itself upon reload. Of note, when I recruited a female named Leaf, I changed her name to avoid my own confusion, but the male Leaf's (longtime associate) portrait still changed.

Updated title as these issues still occur albeit with slightly different circumstances for the 1st issue.
Now, the portrait will only update upon equipping or un-equipping anything from the SHIRT, HAT, or BODYARMOR slots.
Other than that, both of these issues remain the same.

What about the portrait? In the next update, it's bound to get screwed up again. The portrait is just mere cosmetic.

A bug, is a bug, is a bug, is a bug.
Quality Assurance runs in my blood. :P

EDIT: Considering TacticalMaster's feedback, I am going to put this post in the Visual Bugs thread, as it really isn't that significant. Mods feel free to archive.

No crashes or anything, just a slight visual bug.

If your squad has two or more units with the same name then adding or removing armor changes any same name characters image as well.

As in, if you have two characters with the name Bob, then changing the hat for one Bob, will change the picture of both characters to fit the new image.

Merged your topic with a previously created topic that already mentioned this issue.
