isLocalPlayer initially returns false when player reconnects to server

I am trying to implement the ability for players to reconnect to a dedicated server if they lose connection. I am currently not destroying the player object when they disconnect, and successfully assigning control back to the existing object when they reconnect.

When the player re-establishes their connection, the objects they control initially return "isLocalPlayer" as false. This results in camera's and other per player objects being disabled during awake/start logic. This flag does eventually return true but only after a couple frame updates.

Is there a callback or a way to check globally if this part of the process is completed? This way I could just manually trigger the setup logic once I know this flag is correct.

 

Which networking solution do you use? Unity's built in (as the flag suggests)?

 

Unet HLAPI.

 

Both UNET's state reset and reassigning authority (I assume that's what you do?) are full of bugs.
