Reproducibility: Always

Summary: When you are Team Leader, Squad Leader, or any Squad Member inside a squad with a Squad Leader, returning to the TEAM selection screen, clicking your team, and then escape this menu make you not belonging to the squad or to the role (as squad/team leader)

Description: This is the same bug but it has three different cases.

- as Team Leader: start a game select your role Team Leader, then play a little. Now return to the team selection screen by pressing the key assigned for 'select team', then click on your team, don't select any role, just press escape key and you will return to game. Now you can not see in the score board that you are a Team Leader (you name in scoreboard is now YourName instead of YourName(TL)) and you can not take arty coordinates with the command widget (the big arrow) or the binoculars. You still spawn with your stuff but don't have your role functionalities working.

- as Squad Leader: start a game select your role Squad Leader, then play a little. Now return to the team selection screen by pressing the key assigned for 'select team', then click on your team, don't select any role, just press escape key and you will return to game. Now you can not see in the score board that you are a Squad Leader (you name in scoreboard is now YourName instead of YourName(SL1)) and you can not take arty coordinates with the command widget (the big arrow) or the binoculars. Your team mates can not spawn on you too I think. You still spawn with your stuff but don't have your role functionalities working. You can select to spawn on Squad Leader too.. awkward because YOU are the Squad Leader.

- as Squad Member: start a game select your role Squad Member (any class inside a Squad), then play a little. Now return to the TEAM selection screen by pressing the key assigned for or by the main menu 'select team', then click on your team, don't select any role, just press escape key and you will return to game. When you die you will now see that you do not belong to your Squad, for example change camera to your Squad Leader, he will not have his name coloured in orange like your Squad Leader normally have, and spawning on him will not be possible.
