I know there was a fix for NPC Sidekicks being invisible, but I think this one could be related to this: [CRITICAL] Custom NPCs become invisible when the same shot that damages them kills another NPC
I’ll check into it.

We couldn’t get a repro on a blank island, but we could on yours. We’re going to get a ticket in so we can investigate.
FORT-1171239 has been created and its status is ‘Unconfirmed’. This is now in a queue to be reproduced and confirmed.
I have a WIP map with npc’s in vehicles and didn’t see any issue today…
I will say this map is pretty old overall. I did just update it but it has been a thing for a while. Those npc spawner and vehicle spawners have been there for a while. Not sure if deleting and replacing would fix the issue or wouldn’t matter?
