Summary

Guard health resets to 100 HP when players join or leave the server.

I have Guard Spawners configured with custom health values (for example, 5 HP). At the beginning of the match, guards correctly spawn with the configured health and can be eliminated with one hit.

However, when another player joins or leaves the server, all existing guards immediately reset to exactly 100 HP instead of keeping their configured/custom health values.

I have a similar issue.. but with max shield being returned to 100, when it is set to 1. Any guard spawned while my player is respawning after elimination is set to 100. I am in a one player game, and it only seems to be during the transition time from elimination to respawn. Once the player is back in game, the set shield stat sets all newly spawned guards correctly again at 1.0.
