Bug Report: Alien comm spawned into spectator but still on Alien team

Just experienced the following bug while starting a new game on docking.

1. Joined team as Alien comm
2. When the round started I turned into a spectator and started spectating a marine player that started in terminal.
3. Scoreboard still showed me as being on aliens but i had a status of spectator
4. I had to F4 and rejoin the team for it to go back to normal.

This is the first time I have had this happen so I'm not exactly sure on how to reproduce it. As I mentioned the Marines started in terminal and the aliens started in Departures. Apart from that I'm not sure what else to tell you.

It did prove to be advantageous for aliens to know straight away where they were ;)

    Can confirm this has happened to me, not sure if related, but it was on an ns2stats server for scrimming.

    Maybe mention it to the authors of ns2stats just in case until it is reproduced on official servers

    Not sure if it is Relevant / Related, but a few times I have seen marine commanders dieing as soon as they are logged into the chair. Also I have seen a Command chair explode for not particular reason at the start of a game on two separate occasions. Although that is one of the more funny game bugs out there.

    Happened to me yesterday on a pub server, no ns2stats. (I think).

    I haven't had this exact thing happen, but once I went Alien com, the game started and I died in the hive, then had to sit through a 12 second death timer before I could hop back in. :x
