I don't see why this isn't activated for such situations, it's fitting and it means the team with more players will go on the offensive which they probably have the option to do.

Last post

Adding to the ScriptAPI Game.ForceStartSuddenDeath(int suddenDeathTimeSeconds) so scripts can be created to active the sudden death whenever they want. Only works if sudden death is not yet activated. Allows you to change the timer too from the default 45 seconds.

You can't revive dead players and dead players should return 0 health.

I was wondering if there's a way to get the object a player threw/dropped. I've scrolled through the whole API, the only thing I could find something to be maybe a little bit equivalent was the method 'IPlayer.IsThrowing'. This method doesn't return the item thrown, only a boolean.
