Essentially if you pickup the vest from the fallen AI soldier and move far enough from his body (entity got streamed out for your client..?) your vest will become just the belt (so all pouches and it's content will disappear) and all it's content will be unavailable, but as soon as you return to body your vest will become fully functional again, and if the soldier entity will be removed (by GC or manually via game master), you will be stuck with just the belt, also it's somehow tied to bayonets hanging in the air
the problem is very apparent on dedicated server
