Players who join after mission start can use action menu on people they're spectating

Recommended Posts

This has been an extremely annoying problem lately. Sometimes, when someone joins a mission after it has started and spectates a specific player, he can use the action menu of the player he's spectating. I've been thrown out of helicopters, forced into vehicles, my weapon has been switched, I think they even messed with my inventory once. I can't take it anymore. Is there a fix for this?

This issue has been around for a long time. After a quick look on the FT, I dug up this ticket:

It's from last August and still hasn't been assigned. There may be other active tickets, but I can never find what I'm looking for on the FT and my Google-Fu is weak today.

I don't believe for one second that there isn't a workaround of some sort. There are people out there playing right now without this problem. I've seen very few complaints about it. There must be something we're missing.

Sorry to bump this, but I can't find a solution anywhere. I'm thinking of trying a spectator script in the meantime, but I can't believe there would be this sort of oversight in the main game, and I believe there must be a serverside solution or something.

I could swear I had seen more discussion of this somewhere, but I can't find anything.

I suppose one reason it isn't a big topic is that most missions enable JIP and respawn. Not that it's an excuse.

My group doesn't have respawn or JIP very often, if ever. This is becoming a huge problem.
