team settings having a limit of 4 is not really new to this update. It’s been thing for a good 2-4 years now I just assumed it was intentionally done that way for FNC. Given that swapping teams doesn’t really change maximum slots, and you could just have default be 5 slots from islands settings and only ovveride it on the team settings pad when you wanted a team to have less than 5 slots
Update: I have made a Bug Post regarding the incosistent Equipment slots in team settings device if anyone wants to upvote Swapping Teams Ignores Option "Max Equipment Slots"
