Issue #33149: The Dumas becomes merged with the player object

 
Related very much to Sam's quest in 33148, the Dumas is the ship you need to board as part of the progression.

The only problem is that the Dumas is ghost-attached to the player after leaving the planet where Lilian Hart was undercover. As soon as you leave orbit, and even BEFORE you encounter the actual vessel, going to 3rd person mode will reveal a ghost copy of the Dumas attached to the player while in the cockpit.

This ghost image is NOT attached to the ship like other reported instances of this. If you change home ships in an attempt to avoid it, it will not help. The ghost will simply follow you to the new ship. Which is bad enough on its own.

The really broken part is that upon docking to the Dumas, the ghost copy is merged on an angle with the actual ship and you have to fight your way through blindly because it's blocking the view even though you can walk through it.

I have not yet completed the quest, so I'm hoping this is a problem with quest aliases and the ghost copy will disconnect itself once the quest is over. If it does not though, this is a game breaking bug because if the ghost copy doesn't go away, it'll be stuck to you for the rest of the game and make boarding ships nearly impossible to deal with.
