I am creating a mission where a spec ops team (2 human players with one ai player [AI as in AI enabled]) infiltrates the Altis coastline. I want the human players to keep their loadout on respawn, which is taken care of with:

player setVariable["Saved_Loadout",getUnitLoadout player];

in OnPlayerKilled.sqf and

player setUnitLoadout(player getVariable["Saved_Loadout",[]]);

in OnPlayerRespawn.sqf.

The problem I'm having is that when the AI player respawns, (Respawn is set to custom location, respawnOnStart = 0) he reverts back to the vanilla loadout. I want the custom loadout that I set for the AI player in the 3den editor to act the same way on death and respawn as the human players loadouts do. Any help is appreciated, thankyou.
