Player spawns in spectating somewhere random, and doesn't spawn in at round start

Summary

Players can spawn in the experience spectating a random section of the map, which causes them to leave the game, when a round ends, a player doesn’t get respawned, causing them to stay spectating and cannot do anything.

What Type of Bug are you experiencing?

Matchmaking

Steps to Reproduce

Load into the island on an ongoing session, the game HAS to already be started.
Randomly, you might spawn in mid match spectating somewhere random, and you don’t respawn on round start or ever, you just simply are stuck on somewhere random.

Expected Result

The player should be spectating other players, and not details of the map, and they should also respawn on round start

Observed Result

Players can randomly stare at a wall or somewhere random, which is irreversibly causing the island to go down in player count and create a negative experience.
