v0.18.15.1 creating new character in the middle of the round causes item loss on scene transition

What happened?

I created a new character in order to balance the team's jobs in the middle of a round, changing from a mechanic to a medical officer. After retrieving my items from my corpse, and completing the round proper, the scene transition respawned me as a new medical officer with no rolled over xp from the previous round and without any of my items.

Reproduction steps

1. Start a multiplayer campaign
2. Launch into a mission
3. Die, but make sure the round continues
4. Instead of checking respawn, spectate and create a new character from the menu
5. Check respawn
6. Respawn before the round ends, then transition to the next round
7. Character will respawn as a brand new crew member with fresh skills and loadout

Thank you for the report!

We've got a couple of fixes coming up for issues that seem potentially related to this (https://github.com/Regalis11/Barotrauma/issues/8255, https://github.com/Regalis11/Barotrauma/issues/9536 and https://github.com/Regalis11/Barotrauma/issues/7228): I think we need to give this a test in the latest version and see if it still occurs.

Thanks for the rapid response! I haven't swapped to unstable to test this issue again on the newer version, but I will see if I can replicate it on the newest version using multiple clients and my dedicated server

Tested, working correctly. Closing.
