Has anyone ever found a solution for this issue? I feel like it has been crippling the mapping community for years now because I have run into it on every major mapping project I attempt but I see very little information about it anywhere. Does everyone know something I don't?
Right now it continues to be if I try to use a game variant at all it disables spectators in my map. I remember being able to work around this once before by swapping some map files between my infected map and an uninfected one...but now I can't even seem to get that to work.
Alright, there are a couple of older threads on this topic, but none of them appropriately address the issue anymore after 1.3.
My problem: Spectators don't work when I am using game variants. Why? If I open all of the player slots and set the max team size to the max then sometimes it will allow spectators, but that completely ruins the lobby interface and my map, as it allows players to join with too many people on a team.
What I want from the lobby:
======= Game Type - 1v1
========== Team 1
Slot Open
========== Team 2
Slot Open
I can achieve this, but not while still able to add spectators or make spectators. The changes to Game Variants in 1.3 were supposed to be an improvement, but all it seems to have accomplished is breaking spectators.
Please please somebody help me out here. I really hope one of you has a solution.

I cant even get it to allow me to create spectators!
