What happens then? (Same deal with creating a weapon (any weapon, not just a second of a type), with ownale switches being created all over the place....). And yes, we have had new players (e.g. Wooble). And weapons. I guess I should consult on that tomorrow. Do we not get a player cause e can't get a vested switch? Or do we get a player without a vested switch? Or am I off base with the switch naming? Might depend on some precedence thinger...
