Hello,
thank you for reporting this issue, it has been assigned.
Have a nice day.

Hello,
the problem has been fixed for the next Stable update.
Thank you for reporting it.

Excellent! Thanks for the quick turn around on this.

This issue is not resolved. Zone restriction continues to have no effect once the unit has re-spawned.

Hello,
the affected addon did not make it to the recent Stable update (there was a problem with its revision). However, the problem is fixed in Steam Dev and will be distributed in the next Stable update. Sorry for the confusion, have a nice day!

After 1.24 update I Loaded mission in the editor and re-saved. Uploaded to dedicated server. Issue still persists. The module seems to fire multiple times now but eventually stops working still. I got it to fire 4 times but in the 5th time it didn't fire.

Fix incomplete?

Hello,
I cannot reproduce it, for me it works every time.

New CL entry:
Fixed: Zone protection worked only when there was an entire AO defined

Related?

@Fireball: I don't think that is specifically related to this issue other than it has to do with the zone restriction module.

To clarify a little; the zone restriction as set up per above does work after the player respawns now however, after multiple respawns (can't give exact number as it as the issue appears after a different number of respawns every time) the module stops firing. This happens for every player. Just take the mission I uploaded and play it on a dedi box. Keep having the module kill you over and over again, eventually it will stop working.
