Summary0000073: Deaths count bug in Survival
DescriptionWhen coming from Spectator team to any playing team, the player gets -1 deaths to deaths count, when he had 0 deaths before, he will get -65535 (or something like that) deaths.
Steps To Reproduceif you just joined the server, select Spectator team and then go to any team (alpha, bravo etc.), you will get -65535 deaths

If you were playing and have some deaths already (let's say 5), by joining Spectator and then going back to alpha/bravo team you will get -1 death (will result in 4 deaths in this case).
Additional Informationthis bug was happening in some older versions of soldat, 1.3 or 1.4 (dont remember which one), but was fixed in 1.5. It started appearing again in 1.6 betas.

I cannot reproduce it.
Does it still happen in 1.6.2?

I started a local game and joined as spectator then joined alpha but my deaths were still 0.
I tried the same on a HTF survival server but deaths were 0 too.

After trying it in CTF with soldatserver it seems to work now.

Decreased death count happened because each time a player joined a different team in survival mode soldatserver would kill the player to prevent joining alive while a round was ongoing.
However when joining the spectator team you wouldn't die (you can't get damage as spectator) that's why you ended up with -1 death or 65535 if you had 0 deaths.

it seems to be happening only when you have 0 deaths and goes to 65535

it doesnt decrease deaths if you had some already

Confirmed 1.6.6
Only happens online, not in lan game.
Uploading a screen where I joined spectator and then Bravo team.
Notice that I got selfkilled when I joined bravo, and I bet since you can't have -1 death you get maximum deaths instead wich is 65535, if I'm guessing correctly.
