Unable to examine people when observing as a ghost. - Zeronine - 04-12-2013

Not sure if this bug is known, or intended or whatever.

Basically, when you observe someone as a ghost, whenever you try to examine people you get the message "you can't see them clearly" or "they're too far away", even though they can be standing right next to you. Not sure if this is exclusively me or if anyone else is experiencing it.

It's still a step up from when you used to only be able to examine the floor tiles and nothing else while observing.

This has existed for a while. When you're observing someone the ghost version of you stays where you were when you started observing, so the game thinks you're too far away to examine someone.
I've never seen this as a problem as you can just stop observing and fly your ghost over to them if you really want to examine them.

If they are near your ghost/corpse then you can examine them.

Not all the time.
