Teamswitch Side variable. #57

When locked to a team, attempting to switch to a restricted team, the dialog variable for telling the player which side they were playing as is not displaying.

The message in-game appears as "You have played as %1 for too long...." instead of replacing %1 with variables for 'blufor' or 'opfor'
Have been scratching my head trying to fix this minor issue. Any help is appreciated.

To anyone else having the same issue, I managed a slight work-around. Not sure it's the best way, or even proper way to achieve it, but it does work.

in client\functions\playerSpawn.sqf

original starting at line 41:
uiNamespace setVariable ["BIS_fnc_guiMessage_status", false];
_msgBox = [localize "STR_WL_Loading_Teamswitched"] spawn BIS_fnc_guiMessage;

Changed to:
uiNamespace setVariable ["BIS_fnc_guiMessage_status", false];
_prevSide = switch (playerSide) do
{
//case "SIDE", in this instance,is the side you are switching to.
case BLUFOR: { "OPFOR" }; //if switching to BLUFOR, say you've played on Opfor too long
case OPFOR: { "BLUFOR" }; //if switching to OPFOR say you've played on BluFor too long.
};
_msgBox = format [localize "STR_WL_Loading_Teamswitched", _prevSide] spawn BIS_fnc_guiMessage;

If this can be considered a 'proper' fix, then go ahead review and close out, otherwise, still open to suggestions on any better method to do this.
