Summary
Players sometimes get stuck on Team 1 in games where “Team Rotation” setting is enabled. When a player joins, they are not fully “registered” in the game. You can notice this on the scoreboard, where their “Time Alive” stat does not update. When this happens, their character remains stuck on Team 1 even while other players rotate teams each round.
These unregistered players also break the “Split Evenly” mechanic, since the game does not recognize them properly. This leads to unbalanced game sessions for example, one team ending up with 11 players while the other has only 5, even though the mode is intended to be 8v8.
