Summary
In my map, I have the Join In Progress option set to “Spawn On Next Round”
Yet when a player joins the game in progress, they spawn in anyway and can play.

Steps to Reproduce
Create a UEFN island.
Set the Join In Progress option to “Spawn On Next Round”

Start the Game
Have someone Join the match in progress
Expected Result
I would expect anyone who joins a match in progress when “Spawn On Next Round” is enabled, to go to spectate for that round, then Spawn on the next playable round.
Observed Result
Players are spawning in immediately, not spectating and not spawning on the next round, instead, they spawn on the current round.

Additional Notes
In general, the Join In Progress option has been broken for a long time now, which is quite crucial for many games.
It needs addressing ASAP.
