0001506: Option to make PlayerClass un-selectable on join
I wanted to make a suggestion to add something along the lines of making a PlayerClass not able to be selected when joining, LimitedToTeam does not work in gametypes such as Survival and LMS cause the player is killed when he changes teams.
No tags attached.

I forgot to mention this happens if you use ACS to force his team to change, in gametypes such as infection when he gets infected he changes teams and gets forced to a different playerpawn but in LMS and Survival when he dies he is forced to the dead spectators

This was always an issue for wads that want people to start on some base classes and upgrades, mainly because wads want one team to be not accessed except for requirements.


Therefore, possible solution is to maybe add a flag in decorate that prevents it from appearing in the menu. If there's only one class and it has the flag, then throw an error at the start.

Or perhaps in KEYCONF as that seems to be where you set up the player classes.

The interesting question: How would one access the player class? Morph?
