Describe the issue

Guests usually turn visibly green in the face when nauseated. However, if a guest is in any way accessorised (wearing a hat, holding a balloon, …), this never happens:

When sitting, it also seems to affect the guest's posture.

Steps to reproduce
  • find an unaccessorised, nauseated guest (will be green in the face)
  • use cheat to give all guests balloons
  • guest is not green any more

Green guest for testing in attached park.

Research direction

No source file or test is named. Reproduce the issue with the attached park or by giving guests balloons, then trace the guest rendering paths for nausea, accessories, and seated posture. Done means accessorised nauseated guests retain the expected green face and posture without regressing unaccessorised guests.
