The truth is that the big happens at these situations:

  1. If you return back to hub while driving the missile .
  2. If the game starts while you drive the missile

After some more testing, I found out how it happens. If you have saved data with “save loadout” and a player has Guided Missile in inventory. Next time they join the lobby, the issue will start happening

Will the RemovedEvent() have enough time to remove it from the player inventory ? you could remove it set a var in persistence or even turn on a switch then next game they join check the logic if they had it/switch is on or var is true then re grant ?

Might be a simple work around
