Respawn button randomly greyed out
Assigned, WishlistPublic

Description

I created a mission in the editor, and I use "base" respawn with ticket system and "menu position" enabled; I placed different Respawn position Modules. However, when I play sometimes i can't respawn, because in the respawn menu it says "respawn disabled" where there should be the "respawn" button. I use in my mission also Ace 3 mod, and some playable units, through a script, receive one respawn ticket each time they respawn, so the problem is not related to a lack of tickets.

Edit: tried without Ace, issue still present.

Steps To Reproduce

It's hard to say, because it happens randomly. Generally i think it happens when unit is killed in combat (then not using the "respawn" button in pause menu). It happens also after an undefined number of respawns, from 1 to 4, maybe more, and it can happen several times or only one time.

Additional Information

It currently happens in local server and dedicated server. Returning to the lobby and selecting the same slot allows the player to respawn again, but this does not solve the problem.

Could you please try to reproduce it without using ACE 3? SO we can be sure its not the issue with the mod.

Sure Adam, I'll try as soon as possible.

Ok, I tried without Ace but the problem is still here. After a long test session, I think it can be reproduced in heavy lag situations, with 10 fps for example.

I also experienced this issue in a heavy lag situation. I was playing Coop 10 Escape from Altis with bots; was at a large airfield surrounded by two OpFor tanks and at least a half-dozen infantry, FPS was chugging at ~ 15. After a few deaths the button was disabled with the label "Respawn Disabled", despite the fact that I had 9990 respawns remaining. 3 hours of work to get to that airfield, all to waste.
