That wasnt really my point, as in max lives. Thats great and all, but if someone joins the server late, are they going to be dead till everyone is dead on one team or everyone is dead but one, or is he going to respawn and be given lives to play. If he will respawn just connecting, how many lives will he get in relation to everyone elses to make game play fair?
Also, if people who connect or reconnect do revive, then what is stopping someone from reconnecting who has 1 life left or a few, to get a full amount of lives?
