How to respawn CLIENT slots?

[leonardo_c]

I'm scratching my head to get around this one.

 

 

It's the first time I create a mission with "client" slots and I cannot figure out a way to allow slots to be retaken once the group is dead, e.g. a client picks up a Huey, dies and then that slot is not available anymore.

 

 

thanks in advance for any help.

Set the aircraft skill to client. Done.

Thanks for answer.

They are already set to client. The problem is when a player selects one of those slots and then dies.

The slot, even though displayed in the list of available slots, cannot be picked anymore.

That is weird. If the slot is set to client you should be able to pick it again, even after you died.

 

Are you testing this in singleplayer or multiplayer? If you're testing this in singleplayer, then I'm not sure if it might behave different there, but in multiplayer it shoud work fine.

well yes, I'm actually testing it in single player so I guess that's the thing then.:thumbup:

Return to spectators before re-selecting the slot. In single player you might need a "dummy" aircraft to join if there are only two.

After being shot down/crashing/ejecting...press R-CTRL+R-SHIFT+TAB to respawn in the current slot.
