BenevoLabs NPC ads play randomly in some Mr. G arc missions

[Fira]

Mr. G first arc missions (Shake off Pursuers, Steal a Vanguard helicopter) take place on open-world St Martial map and will have the BenevoLabs ad play repeatedly in NPC chat during the whole mission.

 

I'd assume this happens on all St Martial derived maps, but only witnessed in these two so far. This is especially puzzling given that both mission map locations are really nowhere close to the Vault!

Also the case in Attack the Carnival of Shadows map further down, which also takes place in St Martial

Interesting, I just noted it happening in the last mission of the Positron 1 TF

 

[NPC] BenevoLabs Hologram Vendor: Greetings! Interested in drastically changing how you look? BenevoLabs has an offer that provides just what you need.

I'm also getting this in an AE mission of mine, using the Atlas Park Fashion Show map.  AE arc ID 33591.

Just saw it in a Posi1 final mission!

also in safeguards/mayhem missions it happens can evaluate that at least atlas and talos map are infested with that.

Hmm, assuming maps that have a Vault Reserve present out of bounds (since those stores are library objects the vendor is added literally anywhere they are used); I'll make the Vault version of that vendor just not have any shout text.

Yeah, had the Benevolabs come up in the 3rd part of the first mission for Mender Silos TF. It uses Kings Row, so it's got an out of bounds Vault in there, somewhere.

Atlas Park Safeguard has the Benevolent Labs NPC chatter.  Glad to see it fixed in 9/9 Beta notes.
