function onSwitchPlayerToObserver(pl)
  pl.isLoggedOn = true;

function onSwitchObserverToPlayer(pl)
  scheduleevent(1, "HandleTrialAccount", pl);

function onHandleTrialAccount(pl)
{
  // Sometimes the player logs off during observer mode but still triggers onSwitchObserverToPlayer
  if (pl.level.name == "")
    return;
  
  with (pl)
    initializePlayer();
} 


EDIT: There's a short delay after onSwitchObserverToPlayer is triggered and when the player isn't observer anymore, hence why I use a scheduleevent.

I think I'd prefer this if there was a built-in simple way of knowing if somebody was logging on as an observer, for now I'll see how it goes just having SQL occurring within the original event rather than a subsequent trigger.
