[bf1942] BF2 Autobalance

[[JiF]Mike]

I tried this out yesterday and noticed my server stared crashing randomly.
I removed it and the server has been up since.  Anyone else have this
happen? I was never around for the crashes, so I do not know if it happened
when autobalance tried to switch someone. There are also no core files, the
server just "goes away".  -Mike

Yes...I'm pretty sure this worked for me tonight on my server - Nobody on my
squad ever got autoswitched. Here is the start of the onPlayerDeath handler.
p.getSquadId() returns 0 if they are not in a squad.

def onPlayerDeath(p, vehicle):           
    if not bf2.serverSettings.getAutoBalanceTeam(): return None   
    if p.isCommander(): return None
    if p.isSquadLeader(): return None
    if p.getSquadId() > 0: return None

    # dont use autobalance when its suicide/changes team
